From Mr. Croyle and Mr. Murtha
Winter Break is fast approaching, but we have a lot going on here at Mill Creek before we reach that point...
- Our annual Snowball Challenge, coordinated by Ms. Leuthe, happened this past week. We had great fun and raised money for our Holiday Project (see flyer directly below).
- We look forward to welcoming our families for conferences later next week, during which our teachers can share in-depth insight into you child(ren)'s progress.
- Our Holiday Music Concert is being held on Wednesday, December 20 at 7:00 p.m. Please join us for a melodic celebration of the Season!
- Classroom Winter Holiday Celebrations will occur on the afternoon of Thursday, December 21. Stay tuned for details on your child(ren)'s classroom celebration from their individual teacher(s).
Mill Creek has also been getting into the Holiday Spirit through recognizing different Winter Holidays through class activities, artwork/decorations, our spirit days, and our amazing Holiday Door Decorating Contest!
We are excited to learn and celebrate as a Mill Creek Community this time of year!
Finally, we want to wish our Mill Creek families who celebrate a Happy Hanukkah! May your Holiday be full of light and love!
