Principal's Message

Dear Clear Creek Families,

Spring has arrived, and it’s hard to believe how quickly the school year is moving! This time of year always brings so much growth, excitement, and celebration. We are so grateful to partner with you in supporting your children each day.

As we begin planning for next school year, please let us know if your child will NOT be returning to Clear Creek for the 2026–2027 school year. You can share that information using this form:
This helps us thoughtfully plan for classes and staffing.

Next week, we are excited to celebrate the Month of the Military Child! We are especially looking forward to Wednesday’s Purple-Up Day, when the Navy Band will be here to greet students as they arrive, along with soldiers helping us honor and recognize our military-connected students. It’s always a special moment for our community.

We also have a few important reminders for the week:
Spring Choir Performance
  • Tuesday at 6:00 PM

NO SCHOOL - Next Two Fridays (snow makeup days)
  • Friday, April 24th
  • Friday, May 1st

As we head into this busy and meaningful season, we want to thank you for your continued support, partnership, and care for our school community. Your involvement makes a difference. Together, we are creating a place where every child feels seen, supported, and ready to learn.

This weekend we hope you find moments to slow down and enjoy the sunshine together.

Smiles,
Christine Frantzen - Principal
Karen McCormick - Assistant Principal
