Unsung heroes...

2017-04-28 16:00:26 UTC

Many thanks to the cafeteria staff. May 5th is School Lunch Hero day so we say thank you for all of your hard work and dedication to our kids.

Dawn Ekstrand: Thank you for making my mornings a little brighter everyday. My son is not a morning person, & neither am I, so mornings can be stressful, but your genuine smile & friendly wave at drop-off always make the day start off better!

2017-04-28 17:28:32 UTC

I would like to thank Mrs. Dodson

2017-04-28 17:41:43 UTC

For being such a wonderfull teacher to my son Nate.

First grade teachers & staff: Thank you to all who helped put the first grade field trip together. It was so much fun to get to go along with them. Yes, it was organized chaos but WELL organized & a great experience for all. Thank you!

2017-04-28 17:46:23 UTC

I want to say thank you so much to all the teachers and staff at Creekmoor! You have helped my girls excel so much in kindergarten! We are so sad we will leave you next year! Thank you for being wonderful Creekmoor!!!

I have to say, that we are some of the luckiest parents around having you as our principal. I love how you love these kids like they were your very own. No matter rain or shine, you greet each one of them in the morning during car drop off.You call them by name, you make them feel special. Thanks for all your hard work and making each of these years for Jillian a good one. :)

Ms. Beck

2017-04-28 20:12:36 UTC

Of all the teachers my kids have had, I think Ms. Beck is the most "in tune" with what they need to succeed. Thank you for understanding the kids, especially when they are having a hard time (which is when they can try your patience the most!) You put in the extra care, time and planning to make sure the kids are doing the best they can, and I really appreciate you!

Thank you all for all your hard work this year. Our kids have enjoyed being a part of the school and will miss their time at Creekmoor.

2017-04-29 10:09:58 UTC

I am thankful that at Creekmoor our daughter has learned not just to answer basic questions, but to think for herself. This weekend she was reading and stopped to ask herself questions about the text. She has been inspired to learn and grow as a person. For that we are so thankful!

Mrs. Oshel,

Thanks to all the teachers and staff who have made Amelia's first two years of elementary school such a positive experience! From the administration and beyond, each and every one of you have had an impact on her life. Dr. Fellhauer, you have always been there when we've needed anything and you've handled things with the upmost professionalism and concern. It's apparent how much you care for the students at Creekmoor. Mrs. Baird, you never miss a beat and you always greet parents and students with a friendly smile! I appreciate you!! Mrs. Russell, Amelia began her school career with you and she grew and learned so much from you. Your compassion and love for the kids shines through in all you do! Miss Linn, you had big shoes to fill but you stepped in and made the transition to 1st grade a smooth and enjoyable one. Your kindness and devotion to learning is unmatched and I can't thank you enough for the great year this has been. To the countless others, from specials teachers, administrative and support staff, cafeteria staff and custodians, it's clear you all have the passion and caring that it takes to make Creekmoor the best school around!

Thank you for all that you do! As a sub, and parent of a Creekmoor kiddo, I see what most parents don't and I applaud all of you! I am continually amazed at the teachers and staff and how they interact and love these kids. And they put everything they have into doing the best job they can in teaching them. It is a big job being a teacher, one that doesn't get nearly enough recognition! Thank you from the bottom of my heart for giving so much of yourselves everyday even when it's tough!!

The transition into kindergarten has been so much easier than we could've ever imagined. You are truly a momma away from home to your class, and I know each and every one of the kiddos truly love you. Jamos was devastated that you weren't going with the class to 1st grade :) I mean, why can't we have Mrs. Schnarr each year in Creekmoor?! You have given so much happiness and joy to learning and honestly know how to make each day of school fun and educational. We are truly thankful that you entered Jamos' first year and will set the path for such a successful and amazing education! But, lucky for you, you'll have another Nikodym in a few years :) Juna is ready for Mrs. Schnarr :)

This was my twins' first year of school so I really had no idea what to expect. I had always heard good things about Creekmoor, but the experiences we have had far exceed my expectations. We have been blessed with such caring and supportive kindergarten teachers, top-notch office staff, Specials teachers that make the end of the day fun every day, reading specialists that have helped my kids become more confident and stronger readers, and a myriad of support staff that keep the school running like the amazing machine it is!

You are a very special lady! Reagan and Ryann have always had a tremendous love for art even when they were very small. In your class their love and appreciation for all kinds of art and creativity has grown by leaps and bounds. I love that my girls like to use their imagination to create beautiful works of art out of all types of medium. Reagan has told me many times that she would love to be an art teacher, just like Mrs. Cartwright! You truly make each student feel special and feel like they can accomplish anything. They will both miss you so much next year when they are at another school!
Love, the Thomas Family!

Thank you to the Panther Pride before and after school care staff. You all make the time when kids need to be at school early and have to stay after a fun and creative time for the kids to play and also learn. From playing games or on the playground, to science experiments, art projects, and even special treats or snacks my girls enjoy every minute. They also have a blast at summer camp every year, with all the field trips and fun at school with their friends. Thank you for your time and care with our kids!

We've only been at Creekmoor Elementary for two years, but look forward to many more with my second entering school next year. From the first week, when Dr. Fellhauer already knew my daughter's name, to each visit when Lisa greets my son by name, to this year's Kindergarten Roundup, when many teachers and staff already know my soon-to-be kindergartner's name, you ALL know how to make kids feel special and parents feel confident sending their kids there! Miss Lyon, you made Allie love school her first year and, Miss Linn, you've helped her gain even more confidence and love for learning in first grade! She talks all the time of Mrs. Cartwright in Art, Mr. and Mrs. Zaner in PE and Technology and Mrs. Lemen's music class. I have no doubt that you all will give Will the same love of school that you have given Allie! You really are a special group of people and we appreciate you SO MUCH!

Every day our son comes home from school with some great new story to tell us about his day. Thank you for creating a space for him and his classmates to learn, play, and grow. We deeply appreciate the care you show in support of both his academic strengths and challenges. We couldn't have asked for a better teacher this year and are so thankful to you.

I know you might be shocked, but PE is Kolsten's favorite special! :-)

Thanks for making a fun and safe place where moving and jumping and running and throwing and rolling and bending and stretching is acceptable, celebrated, and expected!

It makes the rest of his day so much smoother when he's got a chance to MOVE!

"Too bad we can't have PE every day," he says.

Mrs. Oshel - Thank you for all you have done this year to help Chase become a better student. The year started rough for him but you stuck with it and came up with a different approach for him. He is a better student now because of your patience. We appreciate you.

Miss Linn....
What a great year this has been in 1st Grade! We are so lucky to have you as Rowan's teacher!! It is so evident how much you care for all of your kiddos... that's one amazing quality in a teacher. Thank you for ALL you do to help your students learn and grow! I asked Rowan the other day who his best friend is at school that's a girl, and he said "Miss Linn"! That says it all right there!!
Much Love from

Great job!
