Dear Spring Creek Families,

Happy holidays to you and your family! This coming school week has a modified schedule due to winter break beginning on Thursday, December 21-January 2, 2024. Monday and Tuesday will be regular days and Wednesday will be an early release day at 1:30 PM. In addition, there are no After School Programs this week. We will be having Holiday Spirit Days next week which is an easy and fun way to celebrate the season. On Monday students can wear red to school. On Tuesday students can wear green and finally on Wednesday, we invite everyone to wear their best holiday accessories.

I hope you have a safe and joyful holiday break! We look forward to welcoming students back on Wednesday, January 3, 2024.

Spring Creek Hawks don’t fly, they SOAR!

Sincerely,

Mrs. Snow, Principal
