Tomorrow, Friday, October 10th, is going to be a Pajama Day at Salt Creek Primary. We had two nominations for a prize drop. Mrs. Lindeen's class, for their wonderful classroom behavior, and our 1st grade was for their excellent listening in our Fire Safety presentations. Congratulations and keep up the good work!

Dear Salt Creek Primary Families,
With the beginning of the year quickly approaching, I wanted to take a quick moment to check in and say how much we are looking forward to seeing everyone!
Now for the big question on everyone's mind: will we start school on time? The answer is YES! Crews are working hard to get everything in order, and we will be ready to welcome students back on Wednesday, August 27th.
Later this week, you will receive the official Welcome Back letter with updated procedures as well as your student's schedule.
If there is anything I can assist with, please don't hesitate to reach out at lscanlan@saltcreek48.org.
See you soon!
