The district illness policy requires students and staff are fever/vomit/diarrhea-free for 24 hours, without medication, BEFORE returning (regardless of influenza/covid/other confirmed diagnosis.)

The statement I typically use for kiddos who are sick-but-not-sick-enough-to-be-sent-home is this: “Students may return when they are well enough to participate in learning and engage in a full day of school activities. Lingering symptoms like cough should be stable or improving, and not disruptive to the learning environment.”

Monday, Dec. 22 - Teacher Student Swap

• Teachers dress up as students and students dress up as teachers. Students can dress in their very best.

Tuesday, Dec. 23 - Pajamas & Bingo

• Wear your favorite pajamas and get ready for Rocky Bingo in the afternoon.

All pre-ordered power cards have been distributed to teachers to give to students. Please present the attached flyer to Dave & Busters on Dec. 29th and 20% of sales will go back to Rush Creek.

In preparation for this event, we are considering getting buses for those that would like to utilize that option. Therefore, we need to obtain numbers for those that would be interested in taking the bus should we offer that option. Please click on the link below to take a short survey so we can prepare accordingly for this fun event!
