Staff Appreciation Week
We will be celebrating Teacher Appreciation Week the first full week of May, from May 3 through May 7. Throughout the week, we will be showing our gratitude for the hard work and dedication of all of our teachers, student services, teaching assistants, support staff, and administration. Education is a challenging profession during a normal year and our staff has risen above and beyond the challenges of this past crazy year. This week is our chance to say thank you to those that play such a huge role in our children’s lives.
Please consider making a contribution to help the PTO provide our Ferson staff with special treats for Staff Appreciation Week. You can make a monetary donation through PushCoin or sign up to donate gifts and snacks through the Sign-Up Genius.
Thank you for helping us support our amazing staff at Ferson Creek!
Attention 4th Graders!
The band program is back in action!
We are so excited to offer all wind instruments to incoming 5th-Grade students for the 2021-2022 school year. Students can choose from oboe, flute, clarinet, alto sax, french horn, trumpet, trombone, baritone, tuba or percussion.
There will be a Parent Info Zoom Meeting on May 13 at 6PM. Mr. Brooks will also be popping into classrooms in May to show students the instruments and answer any questions.

Attention 5th Grade Parents
Remote Families - Bernie's Book Bank Pick Up
Bernie’s Book Bank has generously donated books for our students to read, enjoy, and keep. Each family will receive one bag of books for all of the children in the family to share. Remote family book bags are available for pick up in front of the building during the week. Bags are sorted into grade level boxes and are labeled with your family name. If you have multiple children at Ferson, your family's bag will be found with the grade level of your youngest child.
Please read these books over and over with your children at home. When your family has outgrown the books, pass them on for others to enjoy!
Have fun reading together!
