Rock Creek's Rookie of the Year nomination goes to Mr, Brandon McCain. He is consistent, committed, and ensures that all needs are met. He also adds a positive light to our school. We are lucky to have him as part of our RCE family.
The annual Rock Creek Art Show and Choir 🎶 Concert were both a great success. Our budding artists were very proud to show off all of their hard work and creativity. We left inspired and still singing excerpts from some of the songs.
On this National School Nurse Day, we love that we get to celebrate our fabulous nurse, Mrs. Tracy Estrel. She wears quite a few hats from caring for the scrapes and bumps, administering medicine, taking temperatures, and so much more. She works hard to make sure that students are "healthy to be educated and educated to be healthy". Thank you for taking care of all our students and staff at Rock Creek!
⚠️ Due to the forecast of severe weather, all afterschool and evening events will be canceled today, May 8, 2024, in the Fort Zumwalt School District.

Happy School Lunch Hero Day to our fantastic lunch squad trio- Mrs. Higgins, Mrs. Schaff, Mrs. Lowery! We are lucky to have such caring and hard-working ladies who prepare and make certain that students have healthy meals to eat. We appreciate all that you do.
Four square that turns into ten square because 4th graders want to include more classmates, is kindness in action. Witnessing ten students working through and agreeing on new rules for a ten square game, is synergy in action. We LOVE seeing this!
We have so much to celebrate at Rock Creek, including our Positive Office Referral leaders. Great job students, we are proud of your leadership.
Happy National School Principal's Day!!
