The most important part of the care package is letters of thanks and encouragement from students and community members.

Single serve hot drink mixes - coffee, hot chocolate mix, tea

What not to send in the care packages:
No pork products (jerky, sausages, etc can not contain any pork products)
Nothing with alcohol (mouthwash and other products must be alcohol free)
Chocolate (due to melting in transit)
Donations can be brought in from October 4th - 11th. On the 11th they will be packaged up and sent off to the deployed locations.

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 than 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 doctors 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 drs 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.
