Campus News & Celebrations

Notes from the CCES Office & Admin

April 17, 2026

Dear Canyon Creek Families,

It’s hard to believe we are already in the middle of April—this school year is flying by! This week brought our second round of STAAR testing, with our 5th graders completing the Science assessment. Next week will be our final STAAR administration, as all 3rd–5th grade students complete the Math assessment.

Even with STAAR underway, our campus is still full of exciting learning and activities. Our 3rd graders have begun their scavenger hunt, 1st grade students have been hard at work rehearsing for their performance next week, and we continue to eagerly observe our baby chicks as hatching continues! 2nd grade out did themselves with a phenomenal living museum presentation! 

Our final PTA meeting of the year will also take place next week. We hope you will join us as we thank our outgoing officers for their dedication and welcome our new leadership team.

We hope you all have a wonderful weekend and look forward to seeing everyone back at CCE on Monday. It’s amazing to think we only have five weeks of school remaining!

Sincerely, 

CCE Team
