🪐Red Ribbon Week
Thank you to Mr. Jimmy Gilliam with the Limestone County Cattlemen's Association for visiting the Creekside library and reading to some of our 3rd graders as part of the Cowboys in the Classroom program! Our students loved learning about farm life, cattle, and the important role agriculture plays in our community.🐄📚
This week our 3rd and 5th graders attended the 19th Annual Athens Storytelling Festival. Thank you to our local legislators for providing this wonderful opportunity for our students!
Join us in welcoming back to Creekside Mrs. Stephanie Blackburn, Math Specialist! We’re excited for the positive impact she will bring to CES!

Our very first House Day at Creekside was a success!!🎉 Students met with their new house families, built strong connections, and showed incredible school spirit. It was so much fun seeing friendships form, teamwork shine, and pride grow within each house. We can’t wait to see how our houses continue to encourage, inspire, and support one another throughout the year!💙🖤💜💛💚🧡
Our Lost and Found is full again! Please remind your student to check for missing items such as water bottles, lunch boxes, and jackets. Parent conferences tomorrow are a perfect time for families to take a look as well. Any items not claimed will be donated after fall break.
Tomorrow is the day! It’s HOUSE DAY!!
💙🖤💜 6 Houses, One Family 💛🧡💚

We are so proud of our 5th grade students who had the honor of participating today in the Wreath Laying Ceremony at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier at Arlington National Cemetery.🇺🇸 This was a powerful and meaningful experience, and we are grateful our students had the opportunity to take part in such a special tradition.
