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!
On Wednesday, the weather was perfect for a track meet. The 3rd Graders ran foot races and participated in field events. These are the students who placed in the various events. Lots of 3rd Grade Cherry Crocs are very talented in Track & Field! Congratulations
Last Chance Lost & Found. Parents and students, would you please take a minute, when you are at the school for graduations and activities, please take a look at the lost and found table and bin by the South Gym doors. See if any of the coats, helmets or sports equipment might be yours. The Lost and Found table will be up through May 20th. After that, unclaimed items will be donated to a charity.
Last week, the 3rd, 4th and 5th Graders had a field trip to the Loveland Living Planet Aquarium. This place is such a gem for learning about animals and habitats from all over the world. Not only do students get to see animals from Asia, South Africa and Utah but there are exhibits where they can even touch some animals from the ocean. Everyone had a fun, learning experience.
If there wasn’t enough excitement at Cherry Creek last week, a 5th grade Croc found a garden snake in the field. With the help of our custodian, this wayward snake found a different place to reside.
Can’t leave the 5th Graders out…5th Grade’s Got Talent too! There were Cellist, Piano Players, Dancers, a Karate Kid and more! Cherry Creek doesn’t lack creative and talented students. Thanks for sharing!
One of the most anticipated activities of the year is the Reading Carnival, which is the reward activity for meeting one of our Wildly Important Goals: Nightly Reading Minutes. Each Croc got to pick out books to take home to read over the summer. What’s a carnival without the fun games? And there were lots of games to choose from. Crocs also participated in a cake walk and bounce house race course. And the crowning activity was the drawing for fun prizes.
Last week, the 2nd Graders shared their talents. There were artists, dancers, piano players, singers and more. There were so many brave Crocs that shared their unique talents.
The school year is coming to a close and some Crocs are finding ways to go out with a great memory. This 2nd Grade Croc made the Impossible Shot today! Congratulations!
This group of students were called into Principal Darrington’s office to get their birthday gifts and Reading Carnival prizes. But as soon as they heard the national anthem being played, they knew the respectful thing to do: they stopped in their tracks, turned to face the flag in the front office, put their hand over their heart and stood til the anthem was done. Cherry Creek Crocs are patriotic, respectful and live Habit #3: Put First Things First.
Last week, the 4th Graders got to participate in the city track meet. In the sunshine and perfect weather, they cheered on their classmates as races were run. Here are the 4th grade Crocs that placed in various races and field events. Congratulations!
A grateful Cherry Creek Croc spent her Croc Cash to buy the Principal’s Chair so she could thank another Croc for being such a good friend. Habit #5: Think Win-Win. What a thoughtful friend!
What a way to remember your last year at Cherry Creek. This 5th Grader in Mr. Jenkins class made the Impossible Shot! Congratulations!
