Week of March 22-26

Hello Trailblazer Families,

We had a fun week of learning at Diamond Creek! Students enjoyed some St. Patrick's Day reading, writing and math on Wednesday! 

THANK YOU - As a staff we would like to say THANK YOU for all of the amazing donations for our PTC Grab & Go lunch that was provided for our staff.  Thank you to our PTC for hosting this for our staff. It is much appreciated! 

Villages Update
This week students will have our next Village Rally. Students will be learning and reviewing Habit #7: Find Your Balance. This is our final habit and one that is so important for all of us - especially during these stressful times. Thank you to all of our families for supporting these habits in your homes and in our community as well.   Students are encouraged to wear their Village T-shirt or color on Thursday, March 25th. 

Linked below are the 7 Habits we discuss at Diamond Creek. Over the school year, we will spend time each month reviewing one of the 7 Habits along with the essentials that align with each Habit.

Feel free to print and use these posters at home as well.

YEARBOOKS - 2020-21
A huge thank you to Ms. Triplett for helping us organize a yearbook this year! We had to be creative and do this a little different than in the past, but it's here and we are so excited to share with you! Orders are all competed online.  Please see the flyer linked below and scan the barcode to order your yearbook.  Orders are DUE APRIL 2nd!!


TRAFFIC REMINDERS
Keeping our students safe is our top priority. Drivers, we are asking that you please follow these safety procedures while picking up and dropping off students.

1. Drivers please drive slowly through our neighborhoods and bus loops 

2. Pull all the way up when moving through the loop, this helps us get more cars in the loop

3. The bus loops are not parking lots. If you would like to park and get out of your car, please use our lots or street parking to do so.

4. Please walk bikes and scooters on campus

5. We are asking that all cars in the morning go through our bus loops and not enter the parking lot next to the park in the same area as cars are exiting. This is creating a back up in our loops and also traffic coming from all areas and not safe for our walkers and bikers. Please wait to go into the upper grade parking lot side instead of cutting around cars

6. Please put cell phones down and not be texting as you are driving

Our 1st grade Champions students working hard on phonics!

Updates from our week at Diamond Creek  Thank you to all of our parents for taking time to meet with your child's teacher this week.  Our teachers appreciate this face to face meeting time with you.  We are all a team working together to help each child at Diamond Creek be successful and your support is such an important piece of the puzzle.  Thank you for your time and support! On Tuesday, we were lucky enough to have our local Fire Department visit us and lead us through a fire safety assembly.  The students learned what to do in the case of a fire and were able to see the transformation that happens when our firefighters put on all of their gear.  On Wednesday, we had a building wide "READING DRILL".  We all stopped, dropped and read! It was a delight to see students throughout our whole building reading for 15 minutes all together.  I had so many students afterwards tell me they wished it was longer and ask if we could do that everyday!

  9/9/2022   Happy Friday Trailblazer families,   We completed our LEAD Passport adventure today.  Your children have now traveled to all 7 of our common areas to learn what it looks like to be great Listeners, be Empathetic, be Accountable and how to be Disciplined. Due to the smoke, we had them meet in their Village Meeting Spot and the presenters traveled to the students. These passports should have gone home with them today.  It would be wonderful to have them step into the role of being the teacher and share with you what they learned about each area’s expectations.     DC NEWS IS BACK Our Student Leadership under the direction of Ms. Triplett and Mrs. Lopez is back in action.  One of the projects they work on is our DC News.  Click HERE to see this week’s broadcast!     SPIRIT WEEK-GETTING READY FOR OUR WALK-A-THON We have a great week of school spirit ahead culminating with our Walk-a-thon on Friday, September 16t...
