Phone Message 11/4/18

Good Afternoon Deep Creek Families! This is Principal McElroy with reminders for the week. Daylight savings time ended so please make sure your clocks and alarms are set and ready for school tomorrow. We want all our Cubs in class ready to learn by 8:30am. Tuesday, November 06 is election day and there is no school for students. When, among other important decisions you will make about our County, State, and Nation, you will consider a referendum that would provide a much-needed operational millage for our schools.  Because you have a personal and unique view of our school through your child’s experience, you possess daily parental information about our programs and needs.  If passed, millage-dollars will be dedicated to providing a more stable and improved program of instruction for OUR children.  An increase in instructional time, improvement in lagging teacher and staff wages, more effective and dynamic programming in career tech and in reading, removal of pay-for-play fees in activities and athletics, and bolstered school security are among the expected changes that will occur for OUR children at Deep Creek Elementary. Please consider the last item on the ballot carefully:  the quality of Deep Creek Elementary, of our school district, and of our academic and co-curricular opportunities for children depends on our votes.  All of us who live in Charlotte County share in the responsibility of providing generational school support to our children as we prepare them for their futures and our own.  Thank you for listening to this message.  Thank you for voting on November 06!  School resumes on Wednesday. At Deep Creek our Cubs are Ready, Responsible, and Respectful leaders.
