2024-2025 PFC President Message

Dear Cottonwood Creek Parents, Faculty and Students,

​​

​On behalf of the CCS Parent Faculty Club, I extend a warm welcome to each of you as we embark on another exciting academic year 2024-25 filled with promise and opportunity.

​​​

The Parent Faculty Club (PFC) is a group of active parents, faculty, and staff that help to make Cottonwood Creek more than just a school - we make it a thriving community for our kids to learn and grow. As a PFC, our goal is to support and strengthen Cottonwood Creek by ensuring that each student has the opportunity to reach their full potential!

​​

As President, I am deeply honored to serve alongside dedicated parents and educators who are committed to nurturing a supportive and enriching environment for our children. Together, we strive to uphold the values of excellence in education, personal growth, and community spirit that define our school.

Enrichment Programs/Clubs and Events

We are excited to present a lineup of enrichment programs , tools and events for students of all grade levels that are only possible as the result of the generous donations from the CCS families and support from our parent volunteers. To find out more about all the programs, tools, and events we are able have for all our students TK-8 please visit: https://www.cottonwoodpfc.org/enrichment-programs​​​​ 

We are also looking forward to bring our families together through fun and exciting community events such as Ice Cream Social, Trunk or Treat, Astronomy Night, Family Dance Night and more. 

 

This year we are excited to introduce Youth Enrichment After School Club , a program that enables dedicated High School students and parents to run an after school club for the students of Cottonwood Creek. This will empower young minds to reach their full potential through mentorship, education and community service.

​​​​

Throughout the year, we will continue to foster a strong partnership between home and school, ensuring that every student receives the resources they need to thrive academically and socially to enhance the educational experience for all.

​

None of the above could have happened without the support of our amazing Cottonwood Creek families. We rely heavily on parents’ donations and on the volunteers to fund our amazing programs and lead our wonderful community events and activities.

Here are some simple ways you can get started to be actively engaged in our school community to help us achieve our mission:

• Make a Financial Contribution! We make sure every dollar donated works for our students and expands and enriches their educational experience. Please donate here https://www.cottonwoodpfc.org/donate

• Get involved and Volunteer! Whether you can share your professional expertise or a hidden talent; whether you can help every day, an hour a week, or for a specific event, you are needed and appreciated (no experience is necessary) . This year our aim is to work with the school on community involvement and encourage more parents to volunteer.

• Join the conversation! Help shape your child’s educational experience by participating in monthly PFC meetings where we look ahead at defining new goals and putting resources to our existing ones! Our meetings are generally held on the second Thursday of the month at 7:00 pm.  Please look out for announcements for our meetings send to your email.

​

I invite you to join us in embracing the journey ahead, filled with learning, discovery, and memorable moments that will shape the future of our students. Together, let us celebrate achievements, overcome challenges, and build lasting connections that strengthen our school community. 

We are excited to meet the new families and catch up with the old ones!

Again, welcome back and looking forward to an exciting year!
