Pearson Online Math Information for Parents

This is a reminder about the ROUND-ABOUT at the south end of our property. This area is for student drop off/pick up only. We have a problem with parents bringing their students and sitting with them in the car or watching them play on the playground (while parking in the round-about) until school starts. This makes it very dangerous for both the students and drivers using this area and causes a lot of congestion. If you would like your child to wait in the car with you, please park in the north parking lot. Students may also wait quietly in the lunchroom for school to begin. If you are dropping your student off and want to watch them on the playground until school starts, please park in the north parking lot, go to the office and get a badge, and then walk them to the playground.

Les queremos dar un recuerdo acerca de nuestro indirecto (lugar donde dejan a sus hijos) en el sur de nuestra propiedad. Esta área es solamente para dejar y recoger a sus hijos. Estamos teniendo una problema cuando los padres y estudiantes se esperan en el carro hasta el comienzo de la escuela. La cantidad de estudiantes usando esta área puede causar una situación peligrosa. Les pedimos que por favor, si desean esperar con su hijo/a(s) hasta el comienzo de la escuela, que esperen con ellos en el estacionamiento localizado al norte de la escuela. O los niños pueden esperar en el lunchroom hasta que la compana suena.  Gracias por su apoyo.

Accelerated Reader- Spring Creek has used the Accelerated Reader program for years to assist the students in developing their reading skills.  In this program, students read designated books and then login to the system to take comprehension quizes.  The quizes are scored by the system and the students earn points which they can cash in for incentives.

Spring Creek recently purchased an updated version that is web-based.  We invite you to go to the Accelerated Reader link above and click on the link for parents on the home page that comes up.  You can register and receive a parent login so that you can monitor how your child is doing in the program.  Reading is such a critical skill that anything you do to encourage it will help your child to succeed in school and in life.

Every time parents, students and school supporters purchase certain items from Office Depot our school will receive 5%  back to receive free supplies.  Just give them our ID number when you purchase supplies.

Spring Creek’s Office Depot  ID# 70125384

Cada vez que un Padre, estudiante, o alguna persona que ayuda la escuela, compra determinados productos de Office Depot, nuestra escuela recibe el 5% de las ventas, con eso la escuela recibe material gratis. Solo hay que dar el # de la escuela cuando usted compra.

School News

New for the 2007-2008 year at Spring Creek are video projectors and SMART boards in nearly all classrooms.  Remember the old chalkboards we had when we were in school?  In recent decades, most have been replaced with white boards and dry erase markers that are easier to read and cleaner. 

Well, those white boards have been updated with SMART boards, white boards that can be connected to a computer and video projector so that teachers can touch the SMART board to click on links, write or type text, show diagrams and animations and show video clips or other media resources.  Teachers love them and it expands what teachers have in their bag of instructional techniques. 

For example, instead of just telling students about the phases of the moon, and maybe showing a diagram, teachers can go to a website that actually shows the moon moving around the earth and changing phases as it goes.  Or, instead of just drawing diagrams or showing still photos of microbes, teachers can download and show a video clip showing the little critters in action.

SMART boards and video projectors are a great resource that are helping students learn better at Spring Creek.
