Extra-Curricular Sports Starting At Bear Creek


It is coming. This has been a long time in the making and we are really excited to launch the first of four seasons of team sports.


The first season will focus on teamwork and cooperation.


Cost is $240 for 6 sessions. Facilitators are Ciampi, Crissey (schedule allowing), Linnell, and Schultz. We are really pumped to bring a great experience and start this tradition off in fine Bear Creek fashion.


Each camp will be limited to the first 50 participants using the timestamp of registration. You will receive an email letting you know if your student is in the first 50 or if they are on our waitlist. K-2 has been filled.

What To Do If Your Child Is Not Feeling Well


What Do If Your Child Is Not Feeling Well


If your child is ill with symptoms consistent (cough, sore throat, stomach issues, headaches, fatigue, congestion, etc ...) with Covid-19 contact Mr. Crissey and your child's teacher and then the following protocols must be followed:


Students May Return After


10 days have passed since symptoms started, and improvement in overall symptoms, and 24 hours have passed without fever and use of fever-reducing medication.


OR


Provide doctor’s note to campus health room staff stating that symptoms are not COVID-19-related and student can return to school.


OR


Provide a negative COVID-19 test. This MUST be a PCR test not a rapid test.


As an FYI the same holds true for staff members.

Fourth Grade Veterans' Day Performance


Hello Cubs,


4th graders have been hard at work learning a few songs for a small Veterans' Day performance.


The performance will be prerecorded and sent out to fourth grade parents via a link that will go to a google drive folder.


If you do not want your child to be on the video, please email David Crissey to opt out your child from the recorded performance.


This performance will not be posted on Youtube or other social media, it is intended for our Bear Creek community and families.

BIG SHOT


Thank you to everyone who placed their orders for the Pre Sale of Diary of a Wimpy Kid Big Shot!


We have received news that due to the volume of UPS vendors, orders might be delayed by a few days.


I know kiddos are excited to receive the books, and I am excited to get the books into their hands! As soon as books arrive to our campus, I will hand deliver them to each student that placed an order.


Thank you so much for your support! - Ms. Saenz
