Welcome to Creekside Elementary!
My name is Courtney Howard, and I am honored to serve as the Principal of Creekside Elementary School. We are committed to providing a safe, supportive, and engaging learning environment where every child can thrive. Our school's mission is to challenge all students to reach their full potential.
We are proud to be an AgSTREAM school. AgSTREAM integrates agriculture, science, technology, reading, engineering, the arts, and mathematics to provide students with meaningful, hands-on learning experiences. In 2021, as we planned for students' return to a traditional school setting, we reflected on the opportunities we wanted every child to have. One priority became clear: agriculture needed to be an essential part of our students' education. Agriculture plays a vital role in our community, our state, our nation, and our world. We want our students to understand its importance while also laying the foundation for those who may choose to pursue careers in agriculture and related fields. In addition to our AgSTREAM studies, our teachers use high-quality, research-based instructional resources to teach all core subject areas. These proven resources support student achievement and help ensure every learner receives a strong academic foundation.
Each year, we are excited to grow brighter together and harvest our school's success! We can flourish because of the dedication of our teachers, students, and parents. There are many ways to stay connected; whether you choose to call, visit, or message us on Class Dojo, we are always delighted to work alongside our families!
