​Memo for Garden Creek Parents and Guardians

Good afternoon Creeker Community!

I trust you are enjoying all the snow? It is a winter wonderland come early at the Creek!

 Achievement Reports – Reports are being issued today. Please take the time to review these with your children and complete the goal and comment sheet together.  We are attaching a couple of documents for you from our District to help you understand these reports and ideas around how to discuss these with your child We look forward to seeing you at conferences this week. If you have not signed up for a time, please do so or call the office to make arrangements.  Remember, there is no school on Friday due to conferences and professional learning on that day.

 Snowy Weather! – We love seeing our students enjoy the snow, but they do need snow pants, especially if they want to slide ( on their bottoms!)  on the hills.

Staffing – We would like to welcome Madame Nadine Martin to our school. She will be teaching the grade 2 FI class. We also welcome Madame Tricia McGraw to Grade 5 FI. She is replacing Mme. Leblanc who has retired. We wish Mme. Leblanc great things ahead as she moves on from our school and look forward to having Mme. Martin and Mme. McGraw in these classrooms.

Creeker Clothing – Tomorrow, Tuesday,  is our final day to accept Creeker clothing orders. These can be done on Cashless Schools or if you have no access to online, please send your payment and order form to the office. Thank you, Mr. Tobin, for organizing this! GO CREEKERS!
