This weeks events!
Pre-K experimented with solids and liquids by making bubbling Halloween potions with baking soda and vinegar, painted Jack-O-Lanterns with sponges, and practiced counting with a fun new animal game!
Our Dramatic Play Center was transformed into a Haunted House and has been full of imagination as the kids dressed up as everything from frogs and mermaids to superheroes and witches. Our new diner toys have also been a big hit as our little cooks took orders and prepared pretend meals.
We built robots with Magna-Tiles, practiced cutting, played with finger monsters, and enjoyed a pretend campfire with marshmallow roasting on a chilly day.
At library, Mrs. Behrends read "The Very Busy Spider," by Eric Carle, and the kids made their own spider webs, which included a little spider!
So much creating, experimenting, imagining, and learning through play!
The Storm XC team concluded their season at Districts in Grant. Belle and Logan led the team with their 26th place finishes in their respective races while Carter and Luke finished 40th and 43rd respectively. The boys were ranked 11th as a team and finished 9th, achieving our goal of a top 10 team finish. Congrats athletes on a great season! We would like to send a big thank you to Booster Club for sponsoring our team dinner after the meet! Thank you to all for your consistent support of the team and as always, Go Storm!
Go Storm!!!!

Parent Notice: Unofficial Social Media Accounts
Dear Parents and Guardians,
Students have brought to our attention several TikTok accounts identified as “CVS confessions,” “CVS Guess who,” and “CVS s.o.d.” Students report that their pictures and names are being shared without their permission.
Some of these accounts also use the school’s logo, which may create the impression that they are connected to the school.
These accounts are not operated, authorized, or endorsed by Creek Valley Schools. The posts are not coming from the school, and the use of our logo does not make these accounts official school communications.
We believe those responsible for these accounts may have obtained student pictures from our school website. If that is the case, the school has not given permission for these photos to be used by these accounts.
We take students’ concerns seriously. Sharing students’ images, names, or personal information without their permission can affect their privacy and well-being. These posts have also caused disruptions during class time.
Law enforcement has been made aware of these accounts, and we are working to determine the source of the posts. Please also be aware that additional accounts of this type may appear as we work to identify those responsible for the original accounts.
Although posts may be made outside the school day, their effects can carry into school and disrupt learning. If a Creek Valley student is found responsible, school disciplinary consequences may apply when the conduct disrupts learning or affects students at school, consistent with school policy and applicable law.
Please take time to talk with your child about what they are viewing, posting, and sharing online. Remind them to respect others’ privacy, avoid submitting information about other students, and refrain from sharing or encouraging posts that could embarrass or harm someone. One of the reported accounts includes a form requesting submissions; please discourage your child from participating.
If your child has been affected or has information that may help identify who is responsible, please contact the school office. Screenshots and account details may help us address the concern. Please share those directly with school administration rather than reposting them publicly.
Thank you for partnering with us to protect our students and maintain a respectful school community

The elementary students have enjoyed dressing up for Homecoming Week!
Fire Safety, Fall Crafts, and Outdoor Adventures in Pre-K!
We had an exciting week celebrating Fire Safety Week! Our Dramatic Play Center became a fire station, complete with hoses, a homemade fire truck, and paper flames to put out. We also had colored shaving cream "fires" in the water table and some brave fire fighters putting those out with squirt bottles!
We practiced number recognition with fire safety puzzles, created patterned fire hydrants, and the children did an AMAZING job listening to our visiting firefighters!
Outside we found lots of feathers and rocks to add to our mushroom collection, and had a little store selling all their treasures. A few enjoyed some imaginative horse-and-beach play. We even watched a helicopter deliver workers to repair the power lines nearby! What a great opportunity to observe our world in action!
We also worked together to decorate our classroom door with caramel apple crafts.
Our Junior High Girls will play on Saturday October 10, in the MAC JH volleyball tournament in Bayard. They open the tournament at 10 AM in the Old Gym. If they win they will advance to the next round at 11:15 in the Old Gym. The Championship Game will be played at 12:30 in the New Gym, and the Third place game will be played at 12:30 in the Old Gym. GOOD LUCK !! GO STORM!!
