Dear Olde Creek Families,
WOW, time flies! Today marks the end of our first quarter, and we have so much to celebrate. We are proud of all the learning, growth, and community connections we’ve shared so far, and we can’t wait to see what the rest of the year brings.
November is already full of opportunities to learn and connect. There will be no school for students on Monday, November 2, and Tuesday, November 3.
On Wednesday, November 11th, we’ll celebrate Veterans Day. We warmly invite our community, including friends and family members, to join us for our Veterans Day Breakfast. Guests are also welcome to visit classrooms and speak with students about their experiences (sign up below).
Our annual Family Engagement Night is another highlight this month (November 12th). We’ll share a family dinner in the cafeteria, then bring learning to life with games and activities focused on math, reading, science, and Portrait of a Graduate.
Please save the date for our annual Thanksgiving Lunch on November 19th. More information will be coming soon.
There is so much to be grateful for this month. We are thankful for our wonderful students, families, staff, and the caring community we build together every day. We look forward to celebrating with you!
With Bear Pride,
Courtney Korb Amita Singh Claire Silva
Principal Assistant Principal Acting Assistant Principal
