Hat Day- On Friday, students at Creekside were able to wear a hat for school if they brought in a donation for Riley Hospital. Our school raised $400 for Riley that day! The money was taken to the High School and combined with the money they raised for their Dance Marathon on Saturday night. Altogether, the corporation raised over $36,000 for Riley Hospital! The High School's Dance Marathon is the 4th largest in the state!! What a generous group of students we have!!
Spring Pictures- Your child is coming home with an order form for spring pictures today. This will take place on Wednesday, March 26. Unlike fall pictures, these pictures have a more relaxed and fun look to them. Only students who purchase photos will get their picture taken. You MUST PREPAY by either sending in the envelope and check, or ordering online. The photos are 100% guaranteed. Should you not like them, you will get a full refund, no questions asked.
Guest Day- I am still missing a few slips for Guest Day. Please send these in as soon as possible. Remember, if you do not have anyone to come in with your child, we will pair them up with a staff member to participate in the scavenger hunt. Guest Day is on Thursday, March 27 from 1:30-2:05. Your child may go home with their guest, just be sure to send in a written note indicating this to be okay. If there is no note, I will send them home in their normal manner.
Character Cafe- Our school counselor, Mrs. Vidal, has started a Character Cafe. This is for children who are always showing good manners and behavior. These children get to have lunch at a fancy table all decorated up. Kindergarten got to go on Monday. Congratulations to Aubrey H and Cash who were chosen from our classroom!
Art Show- Our Creekside Art Show will be on Wednesday, April 30 from 5-8pm. Be sure to talk with your child about the project they have been working on in art class for this special event! A half sheet of paper came home about this the other day.
Report Cards- Report cards will be coming home on Friday. Unlike last time, a paper copy will be in your child's green folder. As always, if you have questions about something on the report, please contact me.
Attendance- We have had a hard time getting our whole class here and on time every day. So far this school year, we have only had 39 days where the whole class has been here. This means we have had almost 100 days where friends have missed all or part of our day. When your child is really sick, it is best to keep them at home. But otherwise, we need them here. When your child comes in late, they spend the rest of the morning trying to get caught back up on everything they have missed. Please do your best to get them here on time every morning.
