Spring Creek Elementary School

Dear Spring Creek Families,

We have a few exciting opportunities to see all the amazing things Spring Creek students have been learning. On Thursday, January 26, we will have our STEM Fair. This evening event will showcase students in grades K-6 STEM projects. The first week of February, we will have Parent Teacher Conferences. Our school goal is to have 100% attendance at these conferences. Teachers are eager to share the growth and progress students have made and discuss ways that you can continue to support your child’s education to end the school year strong.

The newsletter is full of important information and optional activities for your students–Preschool Registration and 5th Grade Camp Big Springs–just to name a few. 

We hope to see you soon! 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 supports 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. 

Parent Teacher Conferences

This year we have set a goal of having 100% attendance for our Parent Teacher Conferences! Teachers are eager to speak with you about your students, their academic accomplishments and growth, as well as how we can continue to work in partnership in helping your students succeed. Parent Teacher Conferences will be held February 1-2, 2023. Please help us reach this goal by scheduling and attending a Parent Teacher Conference. 

Signups will be on our website at www.springcreek.provo.edu. For your convenience, you can select to meet in person with your child’s teacher or via Zoom.
