Hey this is Matt Scott, Principal @ Creekside Primary. I hope everyone had a great weekend.

Due to the threat of wintry precipitation, all Limestone County Schools will operate on a two hour delay on Monday, January 11. Buses will run and will be 2 hours delayed. Tardy bell will ring at 9:35.

We had a great first week of school last week to start the spring semester.

Just a reminder we will not have school next Monday, January 18th in observance of the Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. holiday.

Creekside has a “Creekside Spirit Wear” store. If you would like to order something, please click on this LINK.

Just a reminder, please do not send your child to school if they have a fever, have a cough, or they have thrown up. We want to keep our school a safe place from germs. Please stay in direct communication with your child’s teacher and our school nurse if your child is sick and needs to stay home.

Also, if you as a parent are showing signs or symptoms - do not send your child to school. Please contact your child’s teacher if you need to keep your child at home and they can share assignments remotely.

Check out our “Parent Resource Page” section of our online newsletter.

We have added “Reading Resource Guides” for each grade level (K-2).

At Creekside we use the Remind program to deliver communications to everyone. We send out weekly communications through Remind and if you are not receiving Remind messages from us please sign up at this LINK.
