Happenings Around Dry Creek Elementary
Fall Break - October 12-16, 2020
I again want to thank you all for the continual partnership in helping to keep our students and staff as safe as possible. We are just days away from fall break! As a reminder, there will be no school from October 12th-16th. In-person learning will resume on October 19, 2020.
I know that many families have plans to travel during the break. Please be thoughtful about travel plans if you go away. If you think that you or someone in your family has been exposed to someone with COVID-19, or if you have not been able to practice appropriate physical distancing during your travels, do not send your student to school and consider getting a COVID-19 test after you return. I wish you all a restful and enjoyable break.
-Mr. Watanabe

Box Tops
We are doing one last push for cardboard Box Tops for Education, before they go completely to the online app at the end of the year. If you have been saving box tops or know someone who has, please bring them into the school NO LATER than October 23rd. Money raised from box tops traditionally goes toward new playground equipment for all of the kids. As always, we appreciate the generosity of all of our families!
