💚💛 LAST WEEK AT THE CREEK! 💛💚

Our Knights had an exciting week on and off the field!

As we wrap up our fall sports season, we’re proud of our Knights and all they’ve accomplished!

🏆 We celebrated our 8th grade student-athletes and their hard work throughout the fall sports season!

🏃‍♀️ Our women’s cross country team clinched its 2nd consecutive conference championship, while the men finished 2nd overall in the conference!

🏐 Volleyball closed out its season with wins over both Newton and Jacob’s Fork. Both Volleyball and Soccer secured a 2nd place finish in the conference standings.

🏈📣 Football and cheer celebrated an exciting overtime victory against Maiden 6-0! They will finish out their season on Monday against Jacob's Fork.

📊 In math, students put their skills to work by ordering from different menus and calculating tax and tip percentages—a real-world application of what they’re learning!

✍️ In language arts, students explored how authors use suspense to influence their audiences, then applied those techniques by writing their own suspenseful stories!

From athletic achievements to hands-on learning, our Knights continue to ignite excellence in everything they do! 💚💛

It’s always a GREAT week at the Creek! ⚔️

Today, we celebrated our Quarter 1 Knights who were nominated by their teachers for demonstrating our character trait of the month: Character! These students received their very own “Golden Ticket” and enjoyed a special breakfast generously provided by Mill Creek’s PTO. 💚💛
We were also excited to welcome Dr. Leslie McIntosh, principal of Bandys High School, who spoke to our students about what it means to be a Knight and a future Trojan with good character. She challenged them to:

✨ Be good people.
✨ Do good things.
✨ Work hard.
✨ Ask for help when you need it.
✨ Always leave it better than you found it.

As our students put these reminders into practice, they become more than just words—they become a part of who they are. Character is built through the choices we make and the way we treat others every day.

We are so proud of our Knights and the character they continue to demonstrate! Keep shining and leading by example! 💚💛
