Elm Creek Public School District

We are ready for 2024-25 Elm Creek Open House! Thanks Jillian for making the entrance look so great! Also thanks to everyone of our staff for their work this week to get ready for kids! GO BUFFS!!

Huge shoutout to the Elm Creek Parent Staff Appreciation Group for breakfast and great coffee this morning from all of our staff. We all loved it and are so thankful. You are all so great to us and we are so happy to get to work with all these great kids. GO BUFFS!!

We are looking forward to Open House tonight at 5 PM. Here is some information for you as they finish up construction on the streets. The road on the South side of the school is now a one way heading West. It will be open all the way through tonight and one way signs are up. The road on the West side of the school will be a one way headed North. It will hopefully be open in a few days. The Village is working hard to get things cleaned up on the streets to paint parking spots on the South side. They will have cones out this afternoon/evening and tomorrow on the South side of the school. Please do not move them and/or park in those areas as they are working hard to get things done. Huge shout out to Dusty and all the folks at the village and everyone else working hard for us. We are excited for the new year!
