Principal's Post
Before next week gets away from me because it's really busy, I wanted to share my end-of-the-year message. The end of the school year is always bitter-sweet. I love seeing how much our students have grown socially, academically, and even physically (they are much taller at the end of the year!) but saying goodbye is sad. I enjoyed watching the students become better readers, more confident writers, and better math thinkers this year. They have all grown to know their classmates and friends and it had been a joy to see many of their friendships blossom.
Thank you for a wonderful school year! I always say that Shaw students are the best and it's because we have such supportive parents and dedicated staff! It has been a fantastic school year. I wish everyone a safe, fun, happy summer. To those of you who are moving on, we will miss you but you will always be a part of the Shaw family! If you will be returning in the fall, we can't wait to see you after the summer.
Sincerely,
Susan Peveler
We will miss you but Once a Tiger, Always a Tiger

Attendance Do's and Don'ts
- DON'T forget to report an absence to the office! Call 937-429-7610, option 1 OR email shawattendance@gocreek.org. If the absence is not reported by 9:30am then our automated calling system automatically pulls the info of anyone we have not heard from yet.
- DO keep your student home until they are 24 hour symptom free, without medication.
- DON'T forget to get a doctor's note and turn it into the Shaw office when your student visits the doctor during school hours. Each student has 10 absences a school year that a parent can excuse, however if you get a doctor's note the absence does not count against the 10 you are allotted. Doctor notes should be turned in within 5 days of the absence.
- DO let us know in advance of any absences due to a vacation. The district is no longer using vacation request forms. Therefore, an email to shawattendance@gocreek.org is the best way to let us know about an upcoming vacation. The district excuses 10 vacation/out of town days per school year. Please note: parents only receive 10 days of absence that they can excuse. If all parent excused absences are used toward vacation, there will be none left to cover sick days.
