Hello Families!
We had a great first week back to school! We've been working hard down here in first grade! Here are this week's announcements 😊

Homework This Week

Homework has started back up again this week. Please make sure your child is reading every night 15-20 minutes and that you are having them practice their sight words for the week. ðŸ˜Š

Subway Day

It's that time of month again at the Creek -- Subway Day is on Friday, January 24th 🎉 On Friday, 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 this Thursday, January 16th. If you would like to join your child for Subway day, you can fill out a second form in your name and return it with your child's order. Our lunch is from 12:15-12:35.

This Friday is Early Release day. School will be getting out at 1:25pm.
