Copper Creek Bobcat Blast
May 02, 2021
A Note from Ms. McNeill and Mrs. Myers
Dear Copper Creek Families,
We are nearing the final stretch of the school year, which means the grading period will be closing soon. Grades close on Friday, May 14th.
We encourage parents to check PowerSchool to ensure all assignments are complete prior to grades closing. We want to give all of our students the opportunity to complete missing work, and to finish the school year successfully. Please feel free to contact the school if you have any concerns regarding your student's grades or attendance.
We would also like to remind parents that we are back to Early Release PLC Fridays for May 7th & 14th. PLC (Professional Learning Community) allows our professional staff to collaborate, and to use data driven decisions to best support the needs of their students. Thank you parents, for your continued support of this valuable time for our teaching staff !
Stay Safe and Go Bobcats!
K. McNeill, Principal
C. Myers, Dean
