Thank You Volunteers!
On Friday, April 17th we had a thank you celebration for our volunteers. We get so many people that help make our school a great place to be, and they do so because they just want to help. How great is that?!
Volunteers, please accept a big thank you from the Creekside Staff for all the amazing things you do to help us out.
Innocademy Coming to Creekside
For the 2009-10 school year, Creekside will be partnering with Innocademy to help provide some middle school components for their 6-8th graders. Since Innocademy is relocating to Roosevelt Elementary, it is a natural move for their 6-8th grade students to work with Creekside. The 6-8th grade students in Innocademy will be taking some elective type courses and will be able to particiapte in after school activities through the programming at Creekside. Innocademy students will be spending about two hours per day at Creekside.
The Innocademy program has been a great success and we look forward to this partnership! If you would like to know more about Innocademy, visit http://innocademy.com/.

Welcome Back!
I hope you all had a restful break from school. Personally, I had a great break and I feel re- energized for the final run to the end of the school year. As I watched this morning's weather forecast, I saw 60 degrees in this week's forecast. I am sure that will feel great!
Just to show the "principal" side of me, I just want to convey the need to finish the school year strong. As the weather does improve, and as the outdoor activities take hold, it is easy to let the studies slide a little. Please do your best to encourage your child to finish this year off doing their best!
Thanks again for your continued support.
MEAP Scores Released
The Fall 2008 MEAP scores have been released and Creekside did well. While I must pay some attention to how we stack up against other schools, I pay the most attention to how each child improves from one year to the next. In this respect, over 90% of the kids at Creekside improved their score in all areas! That is very exciting.
If you would like to see our scores you can click on the link below. If you want to know the percent of students that passed the area you will want to look a the line titled "Met or Exceeded".
