Can you believe that this is the last full month of the school year! It has gone by really quickly. We have a lot going on this month and I want to focus on three of the bigger events. The first event is STAR testing during the week of May 7th. This is the time students get to show us how smart they are! It is important to make sure your children get a good night of sleep, eat a hearty breakfast, and arrive on time to perform their best. If you have any specific questions regarding your child’s STAR schedule of testing, talk with their teacher. The next big May event is our Open House on May 9th. The PTC will be sponsoring a BBQ from 5:30-6:30pm. This is followed by open classrooms from 6:30-7:15pm. Student work will be available to view in each of your students’ classrooms. The third big event of the month is our Volunteer Appreciation Tea on May 30th. This event, held between 3:30-4:30pm in the gym, is the staff’s way of thanking all our wonderful volunteers who make Clear Creek School the special place it is. We will be serving tea, coffee, and cakes as a token of our appreciation. |

The Scholastic Book Fair will arrive on May 7th and will begin first thing May 8th. The Book Fair will be open before school, lunchtime, after school May 8th through May 11th, and during Open House. Our sales goal for the book fair is to sell $2500 (before tax) so that we may receive 25% total the sales in CASH! The cash will then be used to purchase library books next year since funding has been eliminated. Thanks for supporting your student’s school library. |

Thank you students for all your hard work in preparing for the Clear Creek Science Fair. Also, thank you to all the parents who supported their child's work. Even though projects are completed by the student, they often need assistance from their parents in it preparation. This year's science fair was a great success! Projects were unique and thoroughly executed. The winning projects, which moved onto the county science fair, were by: Alex Junge, Jessica Burgess, Wyatt Hook, Brandon Gribas, Hayden Becker, Taylor Petty, Ally Bonnefield, Macey Borchert, Julia Vaughan, and Tracey Gilliland. In addition, Clear Creek performed fantastically at the Nevada County Science Fair! Out of 80 projects, Alex Junge took 1st place and Brandon Gribas took 3rd place. Both are currently in Los Angeles competing at the California State Science Fair. Also earning an award at the county level was Taylor Petty. Her project involved renewable energy and sustainability. She earned the Clean Power Cooperative award. Fantastic work everybody! |
