Nothing is as Beautiful as Spring!

Dear Parents,

Our week has been busy and full of learning!  We have mastered how to add and subtract decimals, and we have reviewed the rules for capitalization.  Woohoo! All of the students worked hard polishing and refining their expository writing skills. Lastly, students reconstructed fossils to construct a dinosaur.  We continue to work on our CCE vision: Canyon Creek Elementary is a school where staff and parents work collaboratively to maximize each child’s potential by providing emotional support and strategic instruction.

THANK YOU
A BIG “thank you” to the kindergarten parents for providing such a lovely Friday Feast.  We appreciate your kindness.
