Notes from the CCES Office & Admin |
November 14, 2025
Dear Canyon Creek Families,
Happy Veteran’s Day week! At CCE, we are especially grateful to all our Veterans and their families for their service and sacrifice. Thank you for all you have done—and continue to do—for our country and our community.
It’s been a wonderful and busy week at Canyon Creek! Our 5th grade Veteran’s Day Performance was such a special event. A big thank you to Ms. Pagliai and Mrs. Weir for their leadership in our 5th grade fine arts night. We also appreciate Mrs. Bamford and everyone who supported the Book Fair—including families who stopped by during our extended hours. All proceeds go directly toward purchasing new books for our library, and your support makes a big difference!
Our 5th graders also had the opportunity to participate in another author visit at the McNeil PAC, which they truly enjoyed. In addition, we were thrilled to host three WatchDOGS on campus this week—thank you to our dedicated dads for your time, energy, and all your help with our project list. Your involvement means so much to our students and staff.
Finally, a friendly reminder about the importance of regular school attendance. Consistent attendance supports academic success and classroom engagement. Please note that if a student is counted absent from school for the day, they may not participate in after-school events, performances, or clubs. Thank you for helping us uphold this practice and ensuring our students are present and ready to learn.
Warmly, The CCE Team

2nd Observational Drawings! This week second graders learned about observational drawing and learning to draw what the see, not what they think they see. No more Broccoli trees! They were thrilled with their progress and very proud. |
