Face Coverings

As you are likely aware, the CDC on Thursday updated its guidelines regarding the use of face coverings for individuals fully vaccinated for COVID-19. As of this writing, state and county health and education officials have not issued any directions or updated guidelines as it applies to schools in response to this change by the CDC. Masks will continue to be required in all PUSD settings for all employees, students, and families, as previously required. The County is seeking clarification from the CDPH, which is expected in the near future. If and when this changes, we will be sure to communicate with all of you, to ensure that there is no confusion.

  Otter Romp

Does your student have a birthday in May or June or is your student promoting Shoal Creek this year? Celebrate them and surprise them with an Otter Romp. We are currently accepting reservations for May and June and would love to come decorate your front yard with otter signs and colorful flowers. Email us to reserve your date at shoalcreekfoundation@gmail.com.

  Virtual Library

We are excited to announce that the Shoal Creek Virtual Library is now available. Students can place books on hold for delivery to their classroom, or for our VLA learners, they can get them on Wednesdays at the Library  Pick -up Box located in front of the office.

To learn more about how this works, visit the Shoal Creek Library Canvas Page. There you can find information about our Otter Virtual Library, such as how to place a book on hold and the safety precautions we take.

Please contact our new Librarian  Mrs. Poole (Spoole@powayusd) if you have any questions.

This is a friendly reminder that we need families to return any library books from last year that were checked out and not returned. The books can be dropped off in the Library return box in front of the office or brought back to your classroom. If you are unable to locate them, please purchase an exact duplicate or reimburse the school for the cost of the book. Contact Mrs. Poole with any questions.

  PTA Open Positions

Shoal Creek Elementary Parent Teacher Association sponsors numerous activities and events throughout the year including School Assemblies, Book Fairs, Family Nights, and Running Club. 

The PTA is actively looking for a treasurer. The time commitment is approximately 1 to 2 hours per week. Without this role filled, we cannot have a PTA next school year. If you want to find out how to help please call, text or email Michelle at 858-943-9495 or ShoalCreekParent@gmail.com
