Provo City School District

Spring Creek Elementary School

February 5, 2023

Dear Spring Creek Families,

Thank you for attending Parent Teacher Conferences this past week. There is so much to celebrate with students’ progress and growth. Having said that, we still have three months of school left! We want to finish the school year strong and your support in getting students to school on time and every day, as well as  supporting them in their learning is critical for their success.

On Monday, February 6th  at 7:00 pm the 4th graders will be performing the Native American Round Dance at the District Day of Dance! It is an evening performance at 7:00 pm at Provo High School and is mostly for the secondary dance performers. In the past, there has been one elementary grade level that is invited to perform as well. This year the 4th Graders at Spring Creek were chosen! Tickets are $6 for adults to watch the concert and can be purchased before the performance or at the door. It is so exciting for the 4th Graders to have this learning opportunity and perform!

Sincerely, Mrs. Snow, Principal

WIDA Testing

Our ELL students will be taking the WIDA ACCESS test the first part of February. This test measures students’ academic English usage in reading, writing, speaking, and listening. The test scores will be used to determine support for academic English development and to show academic English progress. Please be sure your child is here at school everyday, gets a good night’s rest, and eats breakfast so they are prepared to do their very best on the test. If you have any questions regarding this testing, please contact Ruth Ann Snow  ruthann@provo.edu or Michelle Blair  michellebl@provo.edu.
