Key Club
College Recruiters at the Creek
We have several college and military recruiters coming to Deer Creek this year to meet with students. Most visits will be in the Central Cafeteria. The recruiters will set up a table in the cafeteria and students just need to walk over to the table to talk to them. In some instances, the recruiters have asked for a more intimate visit with students. In that case, students must sign up to attend and will meet for a short presentation about the university. Then, the recruiters will be available to answer student questions. Please sign up using the signup genius link if you are interested in attending. (You will be excused from class at that time to attend)

Deer Creek Communication Platform
Deer Creek School District is embarking on a new communication platform to include a Deer Creek App that is designed to enable parents, staff and students to stay informed and up-to-date on events, important issues, general information, emergency notifications and site based activities. The Deer Creek App will work conjointly with the SchoolMessenger App (registration only required one time) as a notification system. Once a parent has registered with the SchoolMessenger App, they will only need to use the Deer Creek App for all things Deer Creek!
