Happy Friday Trailblazer families,

 

We just finished up our 5th full week here at Diamond Creek!  Time sure flies when you’re having fun and we have had a great start to our school year!  

 

THIS WEEK’S DC NEWS 

Thank you Student Leadership under the direction of Ms. Triplett and Mrs. Lopez for another fabulous DC News update.  Click HERE to see this week’s broadcast!  

 


WALK-A-THON FUN

We had a great time at our Walk-a-thon today!  Thank you to the numerous volunteers who helped make this event a success!  The kids enjoyed accumulating their laps as they rocked out to the fantastic music provided by the Bach 2 Rock!  Make sure to have all of your pledge envelopes turned in by next week.  For more information, see the PTC News below.

 

SEPTEMBER’S HOT LUNCH MENU ERROR

Just a head’s up that we DO have school on September 23rd.  There was an error in the original September menu that made it appear that we didn’t have school that day.  We will be here on Friday, September 23rd, ready to celebrate our 2nd Village Rally.

 

PARKING LOT SAFETY REMINDERS

Beginning next week our Student Safety Patrol will begin assisting with drop off and pick up.  We have been working with the City of Roseville and AAA to provide training and gear for our student helpers.  

Just a couple friendly reminders that when dropping off or picking up your children in the Bus Loop, please pull forward to the very FRONT of the loop, please do not stop to unload or pick up in the MIDDLE of the loop if there is space in front of you.  This limits the amount of cars in the loop at one time and can be a safety issue when cars try to pull around other cars that are stopped. 

Also, kindness and patience can go a long way, especially in the presence of our students.  I appreciate everyone remembering that we are all doing the best we can to make the drop off and pick up process as SAFE and EFFICIENT as possible.  

 

 

PTC NEWS

 

WALK A THON:  Today was Diamond Creek’s annual Walk-A-Thon event and it was a huge success.  Please remember that donations are due on Friday, September 23 but 99Pledges is open until September 28. Envelopes to collect donations were sent home. There are top fundraiser prizes available.  Please no cash!

 

GIVE BACK WEDNESDAY: Silhouette Night – September 21 – 5:30pm to 7:00pm. Volunteers will project your student’s silhouette onto the wall.  We will trace, cut and glue.  You get to take this keepsake home to treasure for years to come.  Please see Sign Up Genius to reserve your spot. https://m.signupgenius.com/#!/showSignUp/10c0f49a9ad29aafec25-give1 

 

SAFE ROUTES: The City of Roseville’s Safe Routes to School program will be putting on a Safety Assembly for Trailblazer students on Thursday, September 22.  The assembly will cover helmet safety, bicycle safety and street safety.  Students will learn how to correctly wear a helmet using the “2 Fingers” rule, how to perform an A-B-C bike check before riding and how to be safe when walking or rolling.  The assembly wraps up with an exciting visual demonstration to show why wearing a helmet when on wheels is so important!

 

SAFE ROUTES: If your student would like to participate in Safe Routes, meet us Thursday mornings at either the front main gate or side gate to get a shoe tag. Then go to Active4.me to register their tag so you can get notifications with your student on campus.  Each week, students that participate get entered to win a prize.

 

FALL FESTIVAL:  Save the Date – Friday, October 14!  Details will be coming home out soon.

 

Here's to a fabulous week living the Trailblazer life!

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! W...

  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...
