Changes to Creswell Connections: Coming Soon!

Based on your feedback and participation, Ms. Hall has revitalized our Creswell Connections program!

Instead of a separate meeting time, Creswell Connections is now a monthly newsletter.  It will be seny out at the first of every month with important dates as well as parent tips, a note from the principal, etc.  In-person updates will be scheduled in to our PTSO meetings, too - now you can get all of your updates in one place!

The school's E-blasts will continue, as well, with updates to anything that changes between Creswell Connections newsletters.

Girls on the Run is here at #itcreswell!

We are so proud to have Girls on the Run: Nashville as a new after-school partner.  We believe that this will be a wonderful opportunity for our students to grow and learn as individuals, and we need your help to make this happen!

Girls on the Run not only prepares its participants to complete a 3.1 mile run/walk, it also uses a fun, 12-week curriculum to teach them how to deal with the challenges they face every day: peer pressure, bullying, self-esteem and more.  Please see this link if you'd like more detail.

Space is limited! Applications for students are in the front office, and the first practice begins NEXT MONDAY, 1/27. 

We are still looking for volunteers.  Practices are twice a week for an hour and a half after school, and flexible scheduling options are available!  We have information packets in the front office, and also right here!

If you are in any way able to help or know someone who is able to help, please contact Lesli Hall at lesli.hall@mnps.org or 812-8300.

Valentine's Dance: Version 2.0!

Our Mother/Son Father/Daughter Dance has always been open to all family members, though the name implied otherwise.  No one should feel excluded from our events, and so we have re-christened the dance!

We would like to formally invite you to our Valentine's Day Family Formal - where #itcreswell students and family come "dressed to impress" for a great dinner and a fun evening out!

We have also postponed the Silent Auction portion of this evening to a later venue, so that we can focus on partying until we drop with no interruptions. :)

Sweet Angel Photography will be on-site to capture the evening, and a live DJ will be on-site as well.

A fully catered dinner will be served prior to the dance.

Tickets will be on sale soon - keep an eye out here for more details!!
