This week, Mr Jenkins’ 5th Grade class takes the Spirit Day Trophy with 95% of his class wearing RED or Cherry Creek attire. Congratulations! Mrs. Hardman’s 2nd Grade Class, Mrs. Jensen’s and Mrs. Golding’s First Grade Classes were close behind!
This must be the new trend for 3rd Grade. Another 3rd Grade Croc, this time in Ms. Loomis’ class, bought Mrs. Darrington’s chair for a day! The Principal’s chair must be pretty comfy!
Mrs. G's and Mrs. Brush's 95% reading group finished a book about Green Snakes. Mrs. G invited Mr. Deardeuff to bring in his 2 snakes, Sol and Luna, to class to learn more about them and to have hands on experience with how they feel and how they move. Thanks Mr. Deardeuff for teaching these Crocs and letting them have a personal experience with Ball Pythons.
A 3rd Grader in Mrs Zambrano’s class saved up her Croc Cash to buy Mrs. Darrington’s chair for a day. What a way to spend a day learning in comfort!
2nd grade classes competed in a “foot race” as a cumulative day for our knowledge unit on Greek history and myths. All four classes raced and then we did a final race.
Monday was Veteran’s Day. Some of our Crocs invited their favorite Veteran to come and share their military experiences. Cherry Creek celebrated these Veterans with a Victory lap. Mrs. Sorenson made a sweet treat to thank them for their service and for coming to share their experiences. We love and appreciate all that Veterans have done to help us enjoy the freedoms we have in the United States.
Today, we had two classes winning the Spirit Day trophies. Mrs. Golding’s 1st Grade Class and Mr. Jenkin’s 5th grade class both had ALL of their students wearing RED or Cherry Creek attire. Congratulations!
A 3rd Grader in Mrs. Rees’ class made the Impossible Shot in PE yesterday. Great Job! It seems like the 3rd graders have the magic touch lately.
November is Native American Heritage Month. Mrs Brenda Beyal came to to share her talents of making Fry Bread. Mrs. Beeson’s 2nd Graders watched her roll out the dough and cook it. They especially enjoyed eating the tasty treat. Other Crocs attended a bead making presentation. It’s always fun to learn about other cultures.
This 3rd Grade Croc saved up her hard earned Croc Cash to buy Mrs. Darrington’s chair for a day. What a comfy way to spend a day learning!

These Halloween costumes are spook-tacular! The photo team had fun capturing Crocs in fun Halloween costumes.
The Red Ribbon Week theme for Thursday was Personal Development and Resilience. Crocs were asked to dress like a problem solver. The PTA had brain teasers, riddles and more to help Crocs practice their problem solving skills. Thanks to the PTA for such fun lunchtime activities!
Last week, Cherry Creek’s Lighthouse Team had the opportunity to attend a Leadership Conference at BYU, where they met with other Student Councils from the area. Way to live Habit#7: Sharpen the Saw. The things they learned at the conference will help them now and in their future endeavors.
Mrs. Jensen’s class has been practicing Habit 2: Begin With the End in Mind and Habit 6: Synergize! The students set a goal to fill their smiley face jar, knowing the end goal was a trip to the Croc Cave! They showed great leadership and worked together to reach their goal, then celebrated with some fun in the Croc Cave!
Wednesday’s theme for Red Ribbon Week was Community Connection. Students wore hats or outfits that represented a community hero or a job that they wanted to do when they are grown. At lunch, officers from Springville PD came to interact with students. One officer even brought his K-9 companion. Students played basketball, football and had running races with the officers. Did you know that Officer Monney was once a Cherry Creek Croc? Students presented thank you notes to the Officers. Thanks to the Officers for living Habit #4: Think Win-Win and Habit 8: Find Your Voice and Inspire Others to Find Theirs
The First Graders had their 50th day of school and celebrated by dressing up in 50’s attire and having root beer floats! What a fun way to celebrate learning!
