Welcome to this new blog!

Hello Creekside Family!

Welcome to 2009. We sure have had our share of winter weather this year. Throughout the year, I have talked with several parents about ideas to make our school better. During these conversations, the one thing that continues to come up is communication. So... this is my first stab at that problem. Please bookmark this blog website and visit it on a weekly basis. I will try to keep it updated each week (hopefully by Tuesday morning). If you ever have any questions or concerns, please give me a call (748-3301) or e-mail (geding@zps.org). Thank you!!
