Thursday Post for February 10, 2011


Coins for Canine Assistants News - In 4 days, the children, families, and staff at Creek View raised $3,001.44 and every penny raised went straight to Canine Assistants. Someone somewhere will be able to have a service dog and companion thanks to the CVES family.

A huge thank you to Publix, who counted all the coins and bills for us (waiving the counting fee). Also, thank you to, former CVES front office secretary, Colleen Waddle who coordinated this project for our school.
And now, the winners: Drum roll please….
  • In third place, with $644.00 is 2nd grade!! Wowza.
  • In second place, with $678.18 is 3rd grade!! Wowza, Wowza.
  • And the top grade level, with $693.45 is 5th grade!!!!
The real winners, of course, are the dogs and people who will benefit from this wonderful gift we are giving. Remember, we are still collecting stories and artwork for Paisley’s book. Please have everything submitted no later than Friday, Feb. 11th so the book can go into production.

Thanks again,
Mrs. Emerson, Ms. Duncan, and Paisley

Fifth grade parents, are you ready for Middle School? Space is still available for the next PTA Lunch & Learn-Moving On To Middle School

Six Flags Read to Succeed student reading logs are coming home today! Students can receive a free ticket to Six Flags for six hours of reading!  Reading logs must be turned in by March 1st, 2011.

We are very excited to let you know we have purchased ixl math to help our students practice their math skills. This is an online math  site available to every student at Creek View. Simply go to www.ixl.com. Their username is their first and last name followed by 268, i.e. johnsmith268.  Their password is the student id # beginning with 1100 or 2000 number in their agenda or take home folder. Once they are logged in, they may choose various grade levels and skills. In addition to making math practice exciting, IXL is designed to help your child learn at their own pace. The website is adaptive and will adjust to your child's demonstrated ability level. The site also records all of your child's results, so you can monitor your child's progress anytime by clicking on the Reports tab. Please email perez@fultonschools.org if you have any issues logging in.
