Third Grade Field Trip to Springville Library

Submitted by sarah.sumsion on
The 3rd grade classes had an opportunity of visiting the Springville Library. Mrs. Moon taught us how to get library cards and reminded us of all the things we can check out: not just books. We had a behind the scenes tour of the Snake: the library sorting system. We appreciate having such a wonderful resource in our community.

Recognizing Mr. Talbot

Submitted by sarah.sumsion on
Today was National Custodians Day, so it's only fitting we recognize our faithful, hardworking, friendly head-custodian Mr. Talbot. Mr. Talbot has worked at Cherry Creek since it first became a school and even worked in the building when it was the Springville Middle School. He is from Benjamin and enjoys hunting, fishing and motorcycling. If you come early enough you might catch him ride up to work on his bike (motorbike that is). Mr. Talbot jokes that his favorite thing about his job is he has 830 kids he can tease all day.

U.S. Synthetic Volunteers at Cherry Creek

Submitted by sarah.sumsion on

Cherry Creek was very lucky to have over 70 volunteers (some of them parents of students) from US Synthetic donate time and materials on United Way's Day of Caring. A large crew repainted lines and maps on the playground, as well as added more large graphics with shapes and the alphabet. Along with that, volunteers spent an hour in each classroom teaching students about math and reading, including doing a project and activity with each class.
