Congratulations to Mrs. Ashley Rozier for serving as the Social-Emotional Learning (SEL) Lead for our school! We are so grateful for her and her hard work with SEL at Meadowcreek this school year!

We celebrated the retirement of Dr. Jeanne Altman, Ms. Evelyn Biggs, Ms. Leslie Evans and Ms. Songa Jones! Thank you for your service to the students of the Meadowcreek community! Congratulations!!

Yesterday we welcomed former students back in our building for their senior walk! Congratulations Meadowcreek High School and McClure High School seniors! #GCPSClassof2023!

Congratulations to the Second Semester Perfect Attendance Bike Winners, Henry Rivas-Galindo from Ms. Claiborne's class and Chanelle Waymon from Mr. Wigfall's class!

These students showed tremendous growth in iReady Reading and Math this school year! We are so proud of their amazing progress! Congratulations!!

Fourth graders ended the year by completing projects that showed that kids can make a difference. Ms. Harden's class discussed the issue of school safety and chose to show their support and appreciation for the School Resource Officers (SROs) and the work they do for our schools. They planned and put on an appreciation day for the local SROs, complete with treats, gifts, and a Question and Answer time.

Ms. Almonte's class discussed the issue of school cleanliness and chose to do a two-fold project. They planned and put on a poster campaign to remind the student body to keep the school clean these last few days. They also did a service day where they cleaned up the playground!

Wonderful job, fourth grade!

Third grade students have been working on their public service announcements to teach others about the importance of water conservation. Using these videos, they hope to make a change in the lives of others across the world who don't have the same access to water. Way to go, third grade!

Ms. Harden's and Ms. Almonte's classes also completed a Social Studies Literacy Reconstruction project. They created Google Site pages to explain how the interactive read aloud books they were given connect to the Reconstruction Era lessons from Social Studies. Check out their pages!

Student Council members ended the school year by celebrating their hard work at a Breakfast Banquet. This year the members led the student body in service projects and also served as school hosts during special events.

We enjoyed having our future kindergartners here for a tour of Meadowcreek and story time with Ms. Baughman!

We honor America's fallen service members on Memorial Day. All GCPS schools and offices are closed on Monday, May 29.

Improve your child's ability to recognize math patterns by playing the What's My Operation game. First, think of a simple math operation, such as "add 5" or "multiply by 3." Then, ask your child to say a number. Perform your operation silently and say the result out loud. For example, if you choose multiply by 3, when your child says 6, you say 18. Then your child says 4, and you say 12. After three rounds, can your student guess your operation? Now it's your child's turn.
