During spring break, construction will begin at Albright, which will block Door #2 (the District Office entrance). Please use Door #1 on the Albright Office side for the remainder of the school year.

Thank you for your cooperation and understanding.

In the last few weeks, we have noticed increased numbers of students arriving tardy to school. Please remember that if a student arrives after 7:40, they need to be dropped off at Door 1 and will be considered tardy.

Students who are late to school lose the chance to connect with classmates during Anchor, receive information from morning announcements, and start the school day off in a calm, collected manner.

If you need help encouraging your student to get up and ready in the morning and arrive on time, please reach out to Mrs. Hummel (hhummel@saltcreek48.org)

We want to hear from you! Each year, our staff, parents, and students take the 5Essentials Survey to show us how we are doing. This feedback is extremely helpful for us to make improvements as a school. Please take the 5 Essentials Survey before March 28th. You should take this survey for each school you have students attending, and not just once for the district.

The image below shows the improvement Albright has made over the past three years on the 5Essentials Survey, and we are hoping to rate all green for the 2024-25 school year. We were only a point or two away from that last year and are excited to see this year's results.

Myrtle Ave is our Bus Lane and is closed for drop-off and pickup traffic for the safety of our students.

Drop-off Window: 7:35 - 7:43am Pick Up Time: 2:28pm

*After 7:43am, the back doors are closed and students should be dropped off at the Main Office on Villa Avenue. For student drop-off and pickup, please park in the spots on Harrison Avenue by our soccer field. If you plan to drop-off and go, please let your student out at the southwest corner of Harrison Avenue & Myrtle Drive, while driving westbound on Harrison Avenue. For safety reasons, do not turn around on Myrtle Avenue, especially when buses are unloading students. We appreciate your support as keeping our students safe is our priority.

We offer a late bus that leaves at 3:45pm from Albright each day. The bus does not stop at our usual stop, and instead uses community stops shared below.

Recent Funding - As we all know construction is going to be starting on the outside of our district buildings over spring break. For Salt Creek that means the loss of access to their playground. FTC was able to fund temporary replacement recess toys and games for the students! This includes a gaga pit, large connect 4 games and tic tac toe that will hang on the fence and several playground balls, jump ropes and hula hoops! Our Salt Creek students will have plenty of opportunities to get the spring wiggles out during recess even during construction!
