Mrs. Green is one of our amazingly talented 4th grade teachers. She is positive and friendly and adds so much to our staff. Rock Creek is lucky to have Mrs. Green!
Mr. Stark is so great with all of the kids in our Special Education Program. He works hard to help every kid grow. Thanks for your hard work and caring heart Mr. Stark!!
In honor of Constitution Day, fifth graders in Mrs. George’s class took their classroom agreements one step further! At the students’ own request and using their ideas, they turned their agreements into their very own 5th Grade Constitution. What a meaningful way to bring Constitution Day to life!
We sure love Mrs. Popplewell! She is the BEST instructional coach. Thanks for all you do, Mrs. Popplewell! 💚
Congratulations to these amazing Rock Creek Raptors. They are the Students of the Week.

Dear TFSD Families and Staff,
In the wake of the Canyon West shooting on August 1, the City of Twin Falls is leading a community-wide effort to facilitate recovery and support our town.
As part of this initiative, the city has created a survey to better understand which supports and resources are most needed. As a community partner, the Twin Falls School District is sharing this survey and encourages all of our staff and families to take a few moments to complete it.
Survey Link: https://polco.us/s75ucp
We remain committed to partnering with the City of Twin Falls throughout this restorative process to ensure our students, staff, and families receive the care and resources they need.
Thank you for your participation and ongoing support of our community.
Sincerely,
Twin Falls School District Administration
Many Rock Creek students spent a little time talking about heroes and helpers in our world. Some fifth graders in Mrs. Glasheen's class wrote some pretty sweet letters to thank their heroes.
Congratulations to the first Students of the Week this year!

Mrs. Gebbie continued her yearly tradition of reading The Principal from the Black Lagoon to our newest Raptors! It’s always a fun way to welcome the littlest learners and remind them that the principal’s office isn’t quite as scary as they might think...or is it?
☀️ Happy Labor Day Weekend, TFSD families!

Rock Creek kicked off the new school year with a fun-filled Meet the Teacher Night! After dropping off supplies and meeting their teachers, students and families enjoyed music and popsicles on the playground. A huge thank you to PTO extraordinaire Clarissa Seamons for creating amazing balloon towers to welcome each grade level, and to Sergeant Shawn Applewhite for joining us and helping our school community feel safe, supported, and welcome. #thanksforchoosingrockcreek
School starts on Thursday! If you are wondering about drop-off and pick-up procedures, please refer to this information from the Rock Creek Parent Reader.
Rock Creek Pick-Up and Drop-Off Procedures
We have nearly 600 students at our school, and safety is our highest priority. Please take a moment to carefully review the pick-up and drop-off guidelines designed to keep both students and staff safe.
To ensure the safety of all students and keep traffic flowing smoothly, please follow these important procedures:
Pull forward as far as possible in the drop-off/pick-up lane. If a staff member signals you to move forward, please follow their direction.
Always use the crosswalk for your safety and to model safe behavior for students.
Do not let students exit from the left lane. This is unsafe.
The side parking lot and bus lane are for buses only. Do not use this area for drop-off or pick-up.
Be respectful and courteous to others during busy times. Our children are watching!
Only park in handicap spaces if you have a valid permit. These spaces are reserved for those who truly need them.
Never leave your vehicle unattended in the drop-off lane.
Parents must remain outside the gate. You're welcome to wait behind the fence and observe, but please do not enter the playground.
If someone else is dropping off or picking up your child, please share these procedures with them.
Thank you for your cooperation! If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to the school administration.
