5th Grade Talent Show Audition Information
As part of our year-end celebration honoring our fifth grader students, we will be hosting a Fifth Grade Talent Show. It will be held Wednesday, May 22, after the students enjoy the 5th Grade Breakfast together. 3rd, 4th and 5th grade students will be invited to see the talent show and parents will be invited to attend the show as well. Talent Show Auditions will be held after school on Monday, April 15. Audition forms were sent home on Friday, March 15 and are due by April 8. Students may audition for only one act. We are looking for a variety of acts that are very well prepared and rehearsed. Talent Show auditions will be here before we know it, so it’s a good idea to start rehearsing your act now!

Final month to order a Yearbook for school delivery
Woods Creek is partnering with Treering for yearbook compilation and online sales again this year. All yearbook orders must be placed online at www.treering.com/validate. Our school passcode is: 1016039057551331. Each yearbook costs $18.60. Yearbook orders placed by April 29 will be delivered to the school for distribution before summer break. Please contact Mrs. Bailes at abailes@d47.org with any yearbook questions.
Feet Meet
The Feet Meet is Sunday, April 28 8:00 a.m.-11:00 a.m. Information was sent home with your student on Monday, April 1 and students will hear more about the event on Tuesday, April 2 during a school assembly.
We are looking for more parent volunteers for this event and we will be unable to run the event without enough volunteers! You do not need to run to be a volunteer. Some volunteer spots just require standing at a location on the course to monitor runners. Others require just an hour or two helping to pass out snacks after the races. Sign up here!
This year's Feet Meet is looking for sponsors! If your family, your business, or your organization is interested in sponsoring the race, please fill out the linked google form. There are three levels of sponsorship - Gold, Silver, and Bronze - each with worthwhile race and advertisement perks. We couldn't do this without the support of our Woods Creek families!
