Notes from the CCES Office & Admin |
February 27, 2026 Dear Canyon Creek Families, We are wrapping up the final week of February, and what a fun and full week it has been at Canyon Creek!
Our 3rd graders kicked off the week with a fantastic performance for the entire school, followed by a wonderful evening celebrating with families at 3rd Grade Fine Arts Night and PTA Meeting. A huge thank you to Ms. Pagliai and Mrs. Weir for leading such a beautiful musical performance and showcasing a stunning art display. We are so proud of our students’ hard work and creativity!
Third grade continued their exciting week with a learning experience at the Nature and Science Center. Experiences like these truly bring classroom learning to life. Thank you to our teachers for consistently creating meaningful and engaging opportunities for our students.
Mrs. Hougham also continued her 5th grade guest speaker series focused on College and Career Readiness. We love helping our students begin thinking about their futures! Fifth graders, don’t forget to complete your GMS choice sheet — it is due this week on February 27. You are one step closer to middle school! We hope you have a wonderful weekend, and we look forward to seeing everyone back at CCE in March! CCE Team |

GoGuardian / Beacon After Hours and Non-Instructional Day Notifications |
To support student safety, digital citizenship, and social-emotional well-being, Round Rock ISD partnered with GoGuardian this fall to implement the Beacon digital monitoring system. Beacon helps district and campus staff monitor student online activity during the school day to identify potential safety concerns and provide timely support when needed.
School-day monitoring hours in Beacon are 7:30 a.m. – 5:00 p.m. on instructional days. On those non-instructional days, district staff will not actively monitor Beacon notifications.
Outside of school hours, and during weekends, holidays, and school breaks, parents and guardians may continue monitoring their student’s online activity by using the GoGuardian Parent Mobile App. The Beacon system allows district staff and parents to view: - Student online browsing activity, and - Activity within the student’s district Google account. When enabled, Beacon generates notifications for online activity that may indicate that a student could benefit from additional support.
Parent Monitoring Encouraged Parents and guardians are encouraged to download the GoGuardian Parent App to continue monitoring their students’ online activity during Winter Break and throughout the year outside of school hours or on non-instructional days. Thank you for partnering with us to support student safety and well-being, both online and offline.

Notes from the CCES Counselor, Mrs. Hougham |
March 9-13, 2026 is Education Go Get It Week (EGGI Week) at Canyon Creek! EGGI Week is a week to focus on exploring and learning about the wide variety of post-secondary opportunities and career choices available in the future for our students. While of course our students don't need to have their future plans set in stone at this early age, it's never too early to start learning about the many, many options that are out there! Canyon Creek plans to celebrate EGGI Week with the following activities:
|
* Classroom Counseling Lessons: During this round of guidance lessons, Mrs. Hougham will teach career exploration classroom counseling lessons to help students start thinking about higher education options and careers.
* CCE Staff Graduation Photos: We will have a display of CCE staff photos from their graduations (high school, college, graduate school, Kindergarten?) for kids to look at – education is so valuable!
* Career Paper Dolls (optional at-home activity): In the March 3rd Tuesday folder, students will receive a paper doll they can decorate with what they want to be when they grow up. If they’d like to see it displayed in the hallway, please send it back to school!
* Parent Career Selfies (optional parent activity): Also in the Tuesday folder, students will receive a “Parent Career Selfie” half sheet. If you’d like, please complete the activity by including a picture of yourself working at your job and writing your favorite part of your job. Please send this to school if you’d like Mrs. Hougham to add your Parent Career Selfie to a hallway display!

| Learning.com Keyboarding Challenge 2026 has begun!!!
The online STAAR tests require typing skills as early as 3rd grade. In testing, the stronger a student's keyboarding skills, the more time they can devote to improving the quality of the their response! Our campus is registered to participate and all 3rd-5th student accounts have been loaded. Teachers can decide to have it as an activity during class or students can work on it on their own. The contest evaluates the number of students, words per minute, and accuracy during the window from Feb 10-March 31!
Last year we were Texas top finishers!!! This year the info came to me late so we are a little behind, but I it will be great to see those minutes, accuracy, and speed ramping up!
STUDENTS:
-Log into Classlink, select the Learning.com icon.
-Once in Learning.com, log in with student ID/"s number" as your username and your student ID WITHOUT THE "S" as your password
