Duncan Creek Mission Statement: The mission of Duncan Creek Elementary is to provide a safe, nurturing environment of academic excellence, which will encourage children to become life-long learners and responsible citizens in a global community.
School Hours: 8:50 am-3:15 pm Student Arrival: 8:20-8:45 Student Dismissal: 3:15-3:45 Tardies and early check-outs: Students arriving after 8:50 am are marked tardy. A parent will then have to sign the child in at the front office. If you bring your child to school after 8:50 am, you must go with them to the office. Students are considered absent if they check-out (and do not return) before 12:10 pm, or if they check-in after 12:10 pm. Students are not allowed to check out after 3:00. This is strictly enforced. Thank you for your consideration in this matter!
Absences:Please remember that if your child is absent from school, you need to send a note (emails are not accepted for this purpose) to the school stating the reason for his or her absence. The note should be sent on the day your student returns to school, but no later than one week afterwards.
Communication: If you have any questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to contact me at school through a note, phone call, or email. DCES #: (678) 714-5800 Email: [email protected]
Homework: Homework will be assigned daily. Students are responsible for writing it in their agendas. I will also post it on my teacher page daily. (This is a great resource if your child is absent.)
Lunch: You are welcome to come eat with your child and we ask that you meet us at the café. When sitting at the guest table, please take only your child with you. Please remember that our school does not allow fast food or sodas. Thanks in advance for adhering to Duncan Creek procedures!
Birthdays: We'd love to celebrate your child’s birthday! Lunch time is preferred. Please meet us at the café with your special birthday treats (individual portions please!) We will celebrate towards the end of our designated lunch time. Thank you! Ice cream & Slushies: Ice cream and/or slushies will be available for students each day. $1.00. All frozen treats must be finished in the café. No ice cream or slushies will be permitted in the hallways or outside. Thanks!
