Notes from the CCES Office & Admin

November 7, 2025

Dear Canyon Creek Families,

We had a wonderful week at CCE! Our 5th graders enjoyed an exciting field trip to Pioneer Farms, our amazing volunteers worked hard setting up the Book Fair, and after-school UIL practices are now underway for all sponsored events.

A huge thank you to our PTA and all of today’s hostesses for the incredible Thanksgiving Lunch you provided for our staff. The meal was absolutely beautiful and delicious—we truly appreciate your time, effort, and generosity. Thank you for making it so special!

We hope you enjoy the three-day weekend and the beautiful weather ahead!

Warmly, 
The CCE Team

Students will eat during their regular lunch time.  If you plan to eat, please be sure to bring cash to pay for your meal.  The meal price is $5.00 for all visitors (Exact dollar amount is greatly appreciated). 

Also, don’t forget to bring your photo ID to assist in signing in at the office. If you have visited campus prior to this day, we will have your badge pre-printed.

This helps us speed up the check-in and approval process. Thanks for your support!

When visiting our school—whether you're picking up a student, meeting with a teacher, joining your child for lunch—please make sure to bring a physical ID with you. Photos of your ID on your phone won’t be accepted. Thanks for helping us keep everyone safe!
