"Where it's always a great day to be a Bison!"
A Note from Ms. Marlatt
Dear Bison Families,
It is that time again to get feedback from you on how our school and district are doing. We would like all Bison families to participate. Please take a few minutes to take the Spring Parent survey.
You can also access the survey by scanning the QR code below.
This is also the time of year when we start preparing for celebrations, pictures and so many wonderful events to close out the school year. Please read on to find out more.
And of course, our One School One Book event continues. Roz the robot made a visit to Second Creek on Thursday. We hope you and your student(s) are enjoying the book and all the activities!
Thank you for sharing your children with us,
Ana Marlatt

Traffic Reminders
If you are a returning family to Second Creek, you know our parking lot is small and needs special care during morning drop off and afternoon pick up. Thank you for contributing to the overall safety of our staff and students!
If you are a new family to Second Creek, please read the information below carefully. Staff and sometimes Commerce City police are out during morning drop off and afternoon dismissal to make sure everyone is safe.
Parents, it is very important that we do not park on the bus lane before or after school. Blocking the bus causes delays that go beyond our school.
Here are a few reminders about our drop off and pick up procedures. You know that Commerce City police pops in once in a while and issue tickets to vehicles that are not following our safety rules... so please make sure you are doing what you can do keep our students and staff safe!
- No parked cars in the "no parking zone" - which is by the sidewalk from the beginning of the parking lot all the way to the front doors. This is a fire lane and also a bus lane. There is NO PARKING anytime. Only drop off or pick up. We have noticed many cars parked waiting for the school to open in the morning, blocking the bus and causing lines of cars that go all the way outside the parking lot. Please drop off your student and go - no parking.
- Same rules apply for pick up after school.
- Students can be dropped off at 7:30am. We do not have supervision for students who are dropped off before these times.
- If you drop your student off late, you have to come in and sign your student in at the front office.
- Students must be picked up at 3:30pm every day. We do not have staff to supervise students after school.
- Let us know if you need information about our before and after-school program.
- Please only use the handicap parking if you have a handicap license.
- The Staff of the Month parking is for staff only at all times.
We appreciate your cooperation!
