A Holiday Greeting from the PTA President

It was heartwarming to be at Creekside the very short week of Thanksgiving, to see so many families come to school to join in the various classroom or grade level celebrations for the holiday.  The students all seemed to have the true spirit of the holiday and were giving thanks for all sorts of reasons from loving families to good health!

We choose not to do a December newsletter since the school month is short, but there are some reminders for upcoming events I feel I should mention.  The PTA Board meeting will be held on Monday, December 7th @ 7pm in the media center, remember, Board meetings on always conducted on the first Monday of the month!  Additionally, December brings with it our 2nd General PTA meeting for the year and you don’t want to miss this.  We conduct a very, VERY brief meeting and then we are all entertained by the Creekside chorus, under the direction this year of Ms. Amanda Haas.  Please support Ms. Haas as this is her first year at Creekside and attend this event.  I am sure you will not be disappointed.

Additionally, I want to give a great big thank you to every Dad who shared a donut, every Mom who took time out for a muffin, the teachers who read stories while students enjoyed cookies and milk and each and every grandparent who took a Creekside student to lunch at our book fair this week.  Your support of the Creekside Media Center through your participation in the book fair has been tremendous.  And a very special thank you to parents and guests who have volunteered and helped Ms. Kenning conduct this event,  without your help it would not be a success.

So, to every Creekside family, from the PTA board, we wish you a very healthy and joyous holiday season.  We look forward to seeing you all in 2010.

Lori Farley
PTA President 2009/2010
