Please drive safely and adhere to the signs when entering our parking lots. We have included a map in this newsletter to assist you with how traffic should flow in the front parking lot and student parking lot. Be sure to park in parking spaces when leaving your vehicle.

Coffee with the Principal will be this Thursday. Hope to see you there!

Sincerely-

Principal

Mrs. Cheri Payton is a paraeducator here at The Creek. Mrs. Cheri always goes above and beyond to support teachers and students here on campus and is a joy to work with everyday.

Mrs. Kash is the organizing force on the AP side of the office. There isn't a job she doesn't know how to do. She is always willing to help any adult on campus. Her grace and humility is an asset when working with students. She has been a part of the Bear Creek Community for many years.

When our bus lane is open to vehicles, cars are meant to pull to the curb, drop off, and then pull back into the left drive thru lane. In our parking lots please do not stop drive through traffic by pulling off to the side to wait for a student. We have parking spots available. To encourage people to use these parking spots please be courteous when cars are pulling out back into traffic.

Topics include:
Options after high school | Senior year checklist & timeline | Creating a college list | The College Application | College Essays | Financial Aid Basics | Scholarship search | Student Loans & Work-study
