Sunday Message/BC Bear Facts

Sunday Message

Good afternoon Boulder Creek Families, this is Mrs. Croes with your Sunday Message.

I hope this message finds you enjoying your mild weekend and anticipating some much-needed raindrops on the way.

4/5 Soccer tryouts are scheduled for Tuesday and Wednesday after school from 2:30-3:45. Permission slips were due last Friday. Athletes should come prepared in athletic wear and carry a water bottle.

Tomorrow is Minimum Day Monday. Dismissal is at 1:06.

I want you to know that we recognize that some members of our school community have strong feelings about the future COVID-19 vaccine mandates, and we also understand that tomorrow some may choose to participate in a school “walkout” (staying home from school) to show their opposition. We want you to know that we are committed to continuing to keep our doors open for in-person learning for our students as we pledged to do this school year, so we will be open on Monday, October 18th. We respect your decision to voice your opinion on this important issue, and we thank our families who have already made contact with us to let us know their intentions. Your communication is appreciated, as it assists us with our planning. We also understand that there may be a community protest event scheduled someplace downtown. Some may have the idea to protest at the school first. If you choose to gather near the school site to voice your protest, we respect that. Please keep in mind that it cannot take place on school grounds so as not to disrupt the learning environment. In addition, I know we all want to ensure that we don’t hinder morning traffic in a way that could jeopardize students’ safety as they arrive at school. At Boulder Creek, we want to honor ALL families' views, those who want to voice opposition in protest as well as those who want their children to have a typical school day.

Please remember, we love and value all Boulder Creek students, staff, and parents. If we don’t see you tomorrow, we look forward to seeing you on Tuesday. Have a wonderful remainder of your weekend. :)
