4th Grade Elm Creek Champions, Mrs. Longoria's class!

Coach Lockridge's 3rd-5th PE classes compete in a character building competition where it focuses on Communication, Humility, Accountability, Motivation, and Patience (C.H.A.M.P). The first class to spell out CHAMP receives the title belt for their grade level.
Congratulations to Mrs. Longoria's class!

We’re a few weeks into school, and a SHOUT OUT to our admin team is long overdue! Assistant Principal, Dr. Aliano, and Principal Garza have been working tirelessly to launch the new school year and make sure we start with a strong foundation. Their commitment to students, staff, and families makes Elm Creek extra special…a place where so many people want to be! We’re so lucky to be part of their team! ❤️

Senior Walk was as wonderful as always! It was an honor to support this year’s graduating class…many of whom are former Elm Creek students. The sense of community was strong, and it’s hard to leave without feeling the excitement and camaraderie!

As a way to finish out the year, third graders read the book, The Lemonade War, and completed a project based on the book. Students examined the needs of our school and set out to raise money to purchase soccer goals for the campus. Through much advertising and creative selling, students sold lemonade and reached their sales goal! Thank you to everyone who supported our young entrepreneurs!

May 8th was a big day for our future PreK Explorers as they were welcomed to the ECE family at PreK Signing Day!

ECE was visited by author Claudia Villarreal! Students and staff were treated to her heartfelt and dynamic presentation describing both the work of an author and the importance of fighting against bullying. The presentation was followed by a book signing and opportunity to purchase Ms. Villarreal’s book, The Bully Who Learned to Love, and its memorabilia. Sharing space with authors is inspirational and leaves listeners with a new lens through which to experience reading and writing. Elm Creek thanks Ms. Villarreal for spending the day with us!💙🧡

Monday, February 12th, was a big day in Mrs. Stuart’s first grade class! Students have been been working to publish autobiographies, and Monday was the big reveal - complete with many guests and some sweet treats!

Elm Creek would like to welcome our interim Assistant Principal, Mrs. Debbie Jones! Mrs. Jones has many years of experience working within SWISD, and we’re happy to add her to our Explorer family! Be sure to give her a warm HELLO when you see her!!!!

Last week ECE staff celebrated our Assistant Principal, Ms. White! This special member of our school family is about to head into retirement, and while we will miss her dearly, we rejoice with her as she moves into the next phase of her life. We love you, Ms. White! And remember…once an Elm Creeker, always an Elm Creeker!

Our new Explorer, Officer Perez, has made her home at ECE this past month. She’s been a hit and is fitting in beautifully!
