Please contact our PTA President, Melanie McKenzie, if you are interested in being a chaperone.


 

We are excited to announce that we will have SIX (6) after school classes offered this fall! Make sure to read the details below - and check out the classes offered.

6crickets logoThis year we are using a PORTAL called 6crickets to book and manage all after school programs - so you will want to get setup for that prior to registration opening, to ensure quick booking.

  • Register online at 6crickets (Canyon Creek page). Make sure to pre-register before 9/13.

  • Registration opens 9/13 @ 8:00am, closes 9/20 @ 11:59pm.

  • First Come, First Served

  • A PTA chaperone must be present in every class that is held. The PTA chaperone must be an adult (over 18 years old), must be a current PTA member, and must be a Canyon Creek Elementary approved volunteer. A scholarship is provided for one student per class whose parent is the chaperone for the entire session. (If there is more than one volunteer for this position, a name can be drawn from a hat). Contact Melanie McKenzie at president@canyoncreekpta.org to request scholarship.

  • Any class without a PTA chaperone present will be cancelled for the day.

Hola! At Sponge, we see language as a passport to global citizenship. Students learn to see the world through a different lens while acquiring language skills and the confidence to use them.

We are pleased to offer this class at Canyon Creek Elementary this season! Final Projects: Introducing final projects for each unit! Each project uses a fun cultural theme to incorporate and reinforce language learned in the unit. Online Portal: Free access to our new, interactive online portal to practice language skills at home!
