PLEASE BE AWARE OF A NEW PROCEDURE WHEN BRINGING IN TREATS FOR YOUR CHILD’S BIRTHDAY:
The teacher must be notified 24 hours in advance whenever you plan to bring in any type of treat. There are Creek View students with special dietary and allergy concerns that would require teachers and parents to provide an alternate treat.
The Reflections Contest deadline has been extended to Tuesday, October 12th. Please remember to turn your entries in after the long weekend.”
Screen on the Green is tomorrow night at 7:00 p.m. Please come out and watch Toy Story I on the big screen out in the courtyard. All concessions are $1!!!!!!!

Students in 3rd grade are studying 'The Roots of Democracy'. As the school buses carried them from Fire Station to Public Safety and on to the Municipal Court and finally to the Town Hall in downtown Alpharetta, students learned first hand how the local government operates. Several children noticed the new Corinthian-style columns being erected on the bank at the corner of Old Milton and Haynes Bridge. Identifying Greek architecture is also a 3rd grade standard! One of the highlights from the town hall meeting was the opportunity for students to sit in council seats and to press the voting buttons which register on a board for the audience to view. The large group topped off this wonderful adventure with a picnic at Wills Park. On the return home, students remarked about the 911 center, seeing a real tazer, Mr. Rogers in handcuffs, the judge pounding his gavel, the smoke in the smoke house, the comprehensive living quarters in the fire house and much more. Please be advised that your tax dollars really are hard at work. We are grateful to the many city of Alpharetta employees who helped make this trip an enjoyable, educational experience for our students. What a wonderful town we live in!
Today students raised the target heart rates of their teachers by sliming them! All in good fun, the teacher agreed in advance to be slimed if their students met a fund-raising goal for Jump Rope for Heart, a program implemented by the PE department of Creek View. The whole student body will be able to relive the excitement in a Cheetah Channel special edition tomorrow morning, according to the rumor mill! If you see any green-headed teachers, you will know immediately that they were the ones slimed in this event. Apparently the food coloring lives on for several days!
