The State of Oregon now requires schools to notify parents of their immunization exemption rates for each required vaccine. These rates will now be posted on our school’s website, in our school office and sent home to parents twice a year. The rates attached are the exemption rates as of last spring. Schools are required to publish this information twice each school year. Approximately the second week of March we will post the updated rates. These new rates are collected and tallied in mid February.Fall 2019 Immuization Results

Proposed Science Resources for Elementary Schools
A teacher selection committee has recommended the adoption of STEMscopes as the new primary Science resource for GBSD elementary classrooms. STEMscopes is a phenomena-based digital curriculum that is brought to life through hands-on experiences and student-driven inquiry.
https://stemscopes.com/state/or/
With school board and budget approval this spring, STEMscopes will be rolled out in two phases. Grades 3-5 will begin implementation during the 2019-2020 school year and grades K-2 will implement the following year. STEMscopes was recently adopted as the primary Science resource for grades 6-8 in GBSD classrooms as well.
If you are interested in learning more about STEMscopes, please click the link above. Reach out to Director of Teaching and Learning at kautz@gresham.k12.or.us with your feedback or questions. -

Mrs. Fraze
Welcome to Kelly Creek Elementary School – Home of the Cougars! I am extremely honored to be part of this amazing learning community with staff and families who are dedicated to making a positive difference in the lives of our students. Our young learners are the heart of our school and the reason we are here. We are passionate about creating culturally responsive learning environments for all students by eliminating barriers and designing engaging, differentiated learning opportunities that promote continuous growth and improvement.
Kelly Creek has a reputation for academic excellence and was awarded the District’s 2017-18 banner for Outstanding Growth in Math and the 2017-18 Equity Award. Our belief is that all children, when given a carefully planned curriculum and effective instruction, can be competent and confident learners. This year I am excited to get to know the Kelly Creek family and how I can support its' commitment to excellence. I look forward to a successful school year together; making great academic growth, developing fantastic citizens, and strengthening our school community.
