This Week at Dutchman Creek!

Week of 11-6-2023

We've had some frigid mornings at The Creek lately! 🥶

From the Desk of Principal Moton

Dear parents, students, and school community:

Great start to November! After a quarter of the school year, we seem to have found a really nice groove as it relates to how to operate daily at The Creek. I challenge everyone to take additional steps to reinforce what we are doing well and to identify our blind spots so that we do not neglect opportunities to improve as a school. Your help is needed, so please continue to engage candidly with each of us at Dutchman Creek in the spirit of collaboration and the collective love for our school community.

Join us as we celebrate Native American History Month among other weekly and monthly recognitions. To celebrate is to validate the worth of each of us as we bring our uniqueness together to form the amazing tapestry that is Dutchman Creek locally and our great state and nation by extension.

Enjoy this week's newsletter and let's all have a great week! GOOOOOOOOOOO GATORS!

Yours in service,

Principal Clayton B. Moton
