Message From Dr. Sally

Hello CREECS!
I hope you are finding our new website useful. Here you will find upcoming events, news and all the happenings of our CREECS community.
I would also like to encourage you to take time during the week to review your child’s basic math facts with him/her. It is essential to your child’s academic success that they master these skills and your involvement is crucial. Work math in to your time together at home by involving them in cooking, planning and budgeting shopping lists, counting out money… anything that uses math.
I have attached a number of apps for your iPhone and/or iPad as well as links to other websites and resources to help children memorize math facts. Flash cards are readily available in most stores. You can also make flash cards with your child.
Looking forward this week we have a lot of great things in the works.
As always, if you have any questions or need additional information, please do not hesitate to contact us.
Sally B. I’Anson, Ed.D.
Principal
