Dear Spring Creek Families,

This Monday is the main event that we look forward to every school year–the Spectacular Color Festival!! I hope you can come and join us from 5:30-7:30 here at the school to support this event that PTA sponsors. Last year it was incredible to see so many families support this fun tradition. If you are new to Spring Creek this year, you won’t want to miss this.

On Monday, I will be announcing seven students who have been chosen by their teachers because they have represented our school’s SOAR attributes in the month of September. We are so grateful for these students and many more who are showing kindness, owning their learning, acting safely and responding responsibly. The students will have their pictures taken to be displayed in the Hawk’s Nest and receive a free school t-shirt and prize. These Hawk of the Month students are listed below:
