Hello Spring Creek Families,
This Friday May 14th is our Variety Show Event! Mark you calendars for this Friday live showing. Details and link coming soon.
Arrival dismissal protocol for drivers PLEASE!
Please help keep our arrival and dismissal lines moving quickly by following these simple protocols:
When Dropping a Student Off
1. Please do not show up early. When you show up early it causes major traffic jams in the neighborhood.
1. Pull all the way up before dropping off your child/children
2. Make sure your child is ready to go!
- masks on
- backpack ready
- Name tag displayed PLEASE! if you don't have a name tag, let us know at he entrance and we will provide you with a new one.
3. If possible, don't get out of the car-vehicle. Your child should be able to get out and head to class (we realize this isn't always possible with our younger learners)
When Picking a Student Up
1. Do NOT show up early.
2. When picking up a student please tape the name placards to the windshield or clip to your visor.
- Name placards should be easy to read from 20 feet away
- student name, room number
3. Pull all the way up
4. Do not get out of the car - vehicle
During the arrival-dismissal times there are approximately 100 cars-vehicles waiting to drop off students, your support in making this run as smoothly as possible
is appreciated by everyone involved!
Spring Creek Walkers/Bikers: Please enter at the front gate only. When you enter in other entrances, we will ask you to enter through the front gates because of safety reasons.

Dear Parent,
Please take 5-7 minutes to fill out the following transportation survey for our Safe Routes to School Program (link below). All survey respondents who provide contact information will be entered into a drawing for several $50.00 gift cards to a local business of your choice. The information you provide will help Sonoma County create a safer and healthier community to support active and alternative travel to and from school and in the community. THANK YOU for taking the time to do so!
