 Our 5th Grade students had a visit from real oceanographer yesterday to support their Ocean PBL unit. Dr. Patricia Glibert, a researcher and scientist at the University of Maryland – Horn Point campus spoke with our students about her research and the impact of pollution on the oceans.
We hope that all of our Olde Creek families have a relaxing and enjoyable winter vacation. We are grateful for all of your support during the first part of the school year and we can't wait for a great 2018.

Advanced Academics Information
and Open House with Ms. Coburn
Resources,
timelines, and information about the Advanced Academics programs available to
our students are available at this link.
The deadline to submit Advanced Academic Level IV Referral forms for second
grade students not in the screening pool and students in third through sixth
grade is January 12, 2018. Referral forms should be submitted to Karin Coburn,
our Advanced Academics Resource Teacher. Due to the tight time frame, do not wait for test scores before
submitting a referral for your student in grades 2-7 as there will be no
referrals for Level IV screening accepted past the January 12, 2018 deadline.
Additionally,
there will be an open house for parents to drop
off referral packets and to ask questions regarding the screening process. This
session will take place on January 11, 2018 from 8:30 AM – 11:30 AM.
Please
contact Karin Coburn (kmcoburn@fcps.edu) with any questions about this process.
