We have 2 weeks before Christmas break! We have lots of exciting things happening over the next two weeks! 😊
Subway Day
It's that time of month again at the Creek -- Subway Day is on Friday, December 20th 🎉 Today, your child brought home a Subway order form. If you want to buy Subway for your child make sure to turn in the Subway order form by Thursday, December 12th. If you would like to join your child for Subway day, there are extra order forms at the office. Our lunch is from 12:15-12:35.Salvation Army's Angel Tree
The Willow Creek PTA is excited to be helping out with the Salvation Army's Angel Tree Program again this year. Angel Tree Tags are located on the school Christmas tree between the gym and the cafeteria. Parents are encouraged to select a tag with their student(s), purchase the suggested gift (or another age-appropriate one), and bring the UNWRAPPED gift to the school by December 19th. Once the toys are organized and delivered, the Salvation Army will set up a "toy shop" and qualifying parents are able to come and select gifts for their children. Thank you for participating in making this holiday season special for our community!
The Grinch is Coming!!
To kick of Christmas vacation, we will be getting super grinchy with a Grinch Week!! 🎉 Next week, we will have a book study on How the Grinch Stole Christmas and we will do some Grinch art and science experiments. On Friday, December 20th, we will have a Grinch celebration by having a pajama party, watching How the Grinch Stole Christmas and eat some grinchy snacks!! Our classroom will even be decorated in Grinch theme! Please keep this a secret from your child, as it is a SURPRISE!! Each day this week I will be leaving clues for the students for them to try to solve the mystery on who is coming to visit us next week. 😊 I need your help to get some of our supplies together for the week. Please up sign up for anything you would be willing to help us out with. Thank you in advance!
