Silver Creek Elementary School

Please plan to join us this Thursday April 18 at our annual Student Led Conference where students show you their learning so far this year. This is one of our informal reporting periods and is an important opportunity for your child to take initiative and showcase, for you, how they have been doing.

Please come at any time after 2pm. We will find a place for you and your child to work.  If you can not join your child this time, please arrange a time when you can come in to go over your child’s portfolio of work.

The teachers decided it was a good idea to know how to teach children in all classes so every teacher greeted his or her new class at the door and brought them down to the morning assembly. Mr. Ralston even taught his Kindergarten class a song and performed it at the “Welcome Back to School” assembly. When the kids found out it was just a joke, some were relieved that their real  teacher would continue to be their teacher for the rest of the year.

Silver Creek was a party zone today as we celebrated our secretary, Mrs. Webster’s special birthday, we played Minute to Win it games for Spring Break Out and had chicken kabobs and rice for lunch. Thank you to all of our moms who came out to help serve lunch and clean up.  We will see everyone back to school on April 1 and that’s no joke!

Come and join us at one of the following community sessions to see how the redesigned curriculum is taught and assessed as well as new graduation requirements. You can join any of the following sessions. Silver Creek will have a display at SMS on April 11 at 6:00.
