FALL BREAK!!

October 15th-19th

Have a Safe & Happy Fall Break!!

THE END OF TERM 1 IS ONLY 10 DAYS AWAY!

October 14th is the last day of Term 1

Parents, please be aware of your student's academic standing so that there are no sad surprises at the end of the grading period. Encourage your student(s) to speak with their teachers as soon as possible if there are any concerns

While two systems (Canvas and Q) can bring additional access and convenience, it can also be confusing at times to know where to look to track your students progress. The grade posted in Skyward is the final grade on record.

Q is our grade reporting system and where you should go to check your student's progress and grades. If you need help accessing your student's gradebook, this video should give you some guidance.

Similarly, you can find all sorts of support and tips for accessing and managing student technology at this site.

2026 PTSA Reflections

This year's theme is "What My Culture Means to Me."

Culture comes from the beliefs, values, customs, and behaviors that are passed down through generations. It is how we express our family and regional identity. Culture shows up in our art, music, religion, dance, and even our writing. It becomes how we share and strengthen our community bonds.

Entries are due on October 20, 2026 by midnight.

Why School Counselors?

Research shows the implementation of a college and career readiness school counseling program has a positive impact on student achievement. Willowcreek Middle School counselors are trained and continually participate in professional development to best serve our students and prepare them for life after high school.

So how can Willowcreek Counselors best help your student?

College and Career Readiness Planning and student advisement
Individualized interventions and resources focused on motivation and student achievement to help improve grades.
Counselors are available to support students with emotional and mental health concerns.

We recognize each student as individuals and realize there is not one single path for all. Please be sure to talk to your counselor about grades, attendance, schedule concerns, and to receive emotional support.

Students are welcome to request a meeting with their counselors through the "REQUEST TO MEET WITH YOUR COUNSELOR HERE" website.
