A Note from the Principal
Happy Holidays to all our Families!
We look forward to an amazing December with all of you! We hope you will join us for the PTO Santa Breakfast, Saturday, December 1. If you come early Mrs. Jackson and Mrs. Keur will be flipping pancakes.
- We are delighted to continue the progress each child is making in a variety of ways. Our hope is for each of them to be academically successful, in all areas, as well as socially and emotionally strong. Many programs are in place for teaching and strengthening those skills. Here are some things we are excited about and celebrate often:
- We have tremendous support of our families with special projects and school wide events.
- THANK YOU for your continued dedication and care for others. Your children are learning valuable lessons for the common good throughout this process. Thank you for donating hats, gloves, food items to care for others.
- Our Sherriff’s department will be sponsoring students for Shop with a Hero this year and what an honor it was to shop with them.
WATCH D.O.G.S. is a HUGE benefit and blessing to us here at Stoney Creek. The time spent here in our building is priceless!
We have our first assembly on December 11 and it will focus on Never Giving Up, Encouraging others, and Doing your Best and we will go on a mindset mission!
This month will be short but we have many fun things planned to keep our focus! Thanks for all you do to send us your very best each and every day.
Blessings to you all,
Mrs. Tiffany Jackson, Principal
