It’s been a Cheery, Cherry kinda week at Cherry Creek. These students wore some fun cherry apparel and brought a fun cherry water bottle to school. It’s so fun to recognize cherries all around us.
It’s Spirit Day Friday! Today we had 2 classes that won the trophy. Mrs. Golding’s 1st Grade class and Mrs. Zambrano’s 3rd Grade class had 85% of their students wearing RED or Cherry Creek attire. Congratulations! Thanks for showing you school spirit!
Cherry Creek would like to send out a warm, welcome to Mrs. Youd, our new Custodian. When you see her around the school, say hello and thank her for helping to keep our school clean and safe!

It’s always fun to find Crocs wearing cherries around Cherry Creek. Have a Cheery, Cherry kinda day!
We’d like to introduce you to some new faces at Cherry Creek this year. We have Mr. Aguirre, who is our new Psychologist. And Mrs. Schmoekel, who is our new Librarian. If you see them in the halls, please give them a big Croc welcome!
Mrs. Jensen’s 1st Grade Class is excited to be back at school. Here’s their 1st Day of School picture.
During this 1st week of school, Principal Darrington has been reading with the Kindergarten, 1st and 2nd grade classes to help get to know each child’s name and to reinforce positive choices at school. This spring, she was honored to receive Instructional Leader of the Year by Nebo School district…. “A principal who has improved student achievement through leadership with teachers, staff and community.” This summer, she was awarded Elementary Instructional Leader of the Year for the state of Utah. Cherry Creek is lucky to have Mrs. Darrington at the helm.
A 4th Grader in Mrs. Truscott’s class earned the 1st Croc Claw of the year. Mr. Johnson awarded the Croc Claw to this student for living Habit #1, Be Proactive, for turning in a lost toy. Congratulations!
It’s a Cherry Creek tradition to roll out the red carpet to welcome our students on the first day of school. There were High 5’s, Hugs and photos taken with the Cherry Creek back drop and the Welcome sign. Welcome Back Crocs! We are hoping you all have a great year at Cherry Creek!

Today, the Kinders had their graduation program. They learned so much over this past year and have grown in stature and knowledge. They sang songs about what they learned, recited the 7 Habits and graced us with the school song. Great Job Kinders!
Cherry Creek held its 5th Grade Graduation ceremony this week. The graduates sang songs and the class Valedictorians gave their graduation speech. After diplomas were awarded, the graduates sang a last song: So Wave Your Flag. We are sad to see these Crocs leave Cherry Creek, but are excited for their new adventures at the Jr. High. Congratulations and Best Wishes!
The end of year activities always include graduation. Former Crocs who are graduating from Springville High and Payson high, returned to Cherry Creek to be celebrated at a final Victory walk. It’s so good to see their faces again and hear of their future plans. Best wishes in your future adventures!
Time at the pool and field day activities are some of the most anticipated activities of the end of the school year. The weather was a little mild, but that didn’t damper the excitement of the water games, slides, otter pops and bubble machine. Even Ms. Beeson braved the cooler temps and joined in on the fun. The fire truck spray down is the highlight of the day! Shout out to our PTA helpers and the Springville Fire Department!
1st Graders celebrated Walt Disney Day in their ABC countdown. Mrs. Jensen’s class also won a pizza party for having the most Friday wins for Spirit Day. Congratulations! Thanks for showing your school spirit this year!
The 2nd Graders took a walking tour of the Springville Museum of Art. The learned about different artists and art pieces and art mediums. Maybe some were even inspired to become painters or sculptors.
A BIG Croc shout out to the Provo Elks Lodge Chapter #849. They were kind enough to pay off students lunch debt through out the state. Way to show the rising generations that community members care. Provo Elks are living Habit#4: Think Win-Win. Thanks for being great examples of caring leaders.
Cherry Creek would like to introduce you to the Lighthouse Team for 2026/2027. These Crocs will be the student ambassadors for our school and leading the Victory assemblies. Congratulations on being exemplary Leaders!
