Goshen Creek Elementary School

🎉We eagerly anticipate seeing everyone in the morning at assembly to kick off the day off together! 👏

🧡 Our first day at Goshen Creek Elementary was nothing short of incredible! We had the pleasure of welcoming our students and parents back to campus. These are just a few pictures of the smiles caught on day one! 👏 🎉 We can’t wait to see what day two brings! 🧡🖤🤍

📣 IMPORTANT BACK-TO-SCHOOL REMINDERS 📣 Wednesday, August 12th is the BIG DAY, Porcupines! 🧡🖤 As we head back to school, here are a few important reminders to help keep everyone safe and make the first day run as smoothly as possible: 🚸 SLOW DOWN & WATCH FOR SCHOOL ZONES! Please be extra cautious in our school zones and be prepared to stop for school buses. 🚌 A huge thank you to the Springtown Police for monitoring our school zones and helping keep our Porcupines safe! 🚧 TRAFFIC ALERT - SPRINGTOWN MIDDLE SCHOOL SMS has a new bus loop this year as construction continues on our new Science & CTE Wing! Our bus drivers have completed test runs, but tomorrow will be the real deal with buses, parent drop-off and pick-up, students, and staff all arriving at once. The first few days are always an adjustment as everyone learns the new routine. We promise… it gets better! 🧡 ☀️ IT’S GOING TO BE HOT! High temperatures are expected during the first few weeks of school. Because of their size and the frequent opening of doors at stops, buses can struggle to stay cool in extreme heat. We encourage students to fill up a water bottle before leaving campus in the afternoon so they have something to drink on the ride home. Above all, please be patient, be kind, and give everyone a little grace as we get back into the swing of things. Let’s have a GREAT first day, Porcupines! #BELIEVEinthePOJOMagic #PorcupineFamily

🧡 Goshen Creek Elementary staff started the day with a yoga class led by Jenny Rice 💪🏻 from Trident Fitness✨, focusing on core strength, flexibility, stamina, and dedication to help us wrap up the week of professional development. 🖤 Our GCES family made meaningful connections between yoga and what it means to be a strong, supportive team—for each other, our students, and our community. 💪🧡 It was a great opportunity to get focused on the fantastic year ahead! We are ALL IN for Goshen Creek! 🦔 #GoshenCreekElementary #AllIn #TeamGoshen #PorcupinePride #StrongerTogether

🧡🖤 Quick Reminder! 🖤🧡 Here is a quick graphic of the routes for morning student drop-off and afternoon student pick-up. 🚗🚌 Please review carefully before arrival to help keep traffic flowing safely and smoothly. Thank you for helping us keep our Porcupines safe! 🦔✨ 🧡 Don't forget... All students have been issued new cards and numbers this year. Cards and numbers from previous years will not work. #GoshenCreekElementary #DropOff #PickUp #SafetyFirst #PorcupinePride #AllIn #TeamGoshen
