 Happy Friday Trailblazer families,

 

I hope you all had a wonderful Fall Break!  I enjoyed having all of my family under the same roof for a few days!  The house was full of laughter and pie, oh so much pie!  

 

We are now entering into the exciting month of December with so many activities both inside and outside of school.  Our PTC has many wonderful events planned, including Paint Night tonight.  Thank you to our amazing PTC for all of their hard work that goes into our school events!  We appreciate you!

 

Today we had our Village Rally for Habit #3 Make Priorities Matter organized by our Makkiti Village!  Our essential skill focus was Work first-then play which falls under the D for Disciplined in our Trailblazers LEAD expectations. There was a great Minute to Win It game and we had so much fun saying our Village Chants!  Thank you to the staff in our Makkiti Village for putting together such a fun rally for all! 

 

SPELLING BEE WINNERS!

Congratulations to our Diamond Creek Spelling Bee winners in 4th and 5th grade! Our 4th grade winners were Chase Baldwin, Liam Harney, and Olivia Lane and our 5th grade winners were Warner Ball, Lythan Camay, and Olivia Spanos.  They will represent Diamond Creek in the District Spelling Bee in December.  We wish them all the best!

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...
