A Message from Mrs. Paul Greetings!
We are in celebration mode at Plymouth Creek! Many grade levels and classrooms have themed days as we approach the end of the school year. While there is much to be excited about, the end of the year does often bring up a myriad of feelings for our students. Please talk with your students about how they are feeling and assure them that whatever they may be feeling is valid.
Our 5th grade students are getting ready to transition into middle school. East Middle School would like to invite next year's 6th graders (current 5th graders) to take a 20-minute, self-guided, socially-distanced tour at Wayzata East Middle School between the hours of 6:00 p.m.-8:00 p.m. on Tuesday, June 1 or Thursday, June 3.
The purpose of the tour is for students to see the different areas of the building: classrooms, lockers, gymnasium and cafeteria. Sign Up:

Class schedules and team information will not be available at this time.
If your family is moving within the district over the summer, please contact the Welcome Center with your new address and a copy of your purchase agreement or lease. If you are moving out of the school district, we ask that you fill out the Withdrawal Form as soon as possible. This form should be completed if your family is moving out of the district, making a different choice for education, or homeschooling.
Remember, there is no school for students on Monday, May 31 in observance of Memorial Day. School will resume on Tuesday, June 1.
Have a good evening, Ashley Paul

Please check backpacks, bookshelves, desks, cubbies, and book boxes at home and school for any books. If a book has a Plymouth Creek Elementary barcode on the front cover, return it as soon as possible so we can check it in and remove it from your library account.
Payment for any lost or damaged books can be made with a check to: Plymouth Creek Elementary. Please remember to write your child's name, classroom teacher, and "Media Center" on the envelope so we credit the correct account. Thank you!

Around the District Free Summer Meals Wayzata Public Schools is offering summer meals on Wednesdays at Central Middle School. The weekly curbside pickup is free and available to anyone 18 years of age and younger. The meal kits will provide breakfasts and lunches for seven days. Weekly Meal Pick-up Details:
Additionally, the Free Meals for Kids mobile app helps families find free meals at schools and other sites across Minnesota during school closures. How it works:
Free Meals for Kids can be downloaded at Apple or Google Play app stores iPad Returns By the end of the school year all iPads for K-4th grade students will be collected. Last fall, each student was also given an Apple charging cable and Apple charging brick. We need all remaining charging bricks and cables returned as well to ensure all iPads can be charged for next school year. If you already did this, thank you! Last chance to thank a teacher with a bundt cake! This school year has been unusual to say the least! Our teachers and staff have been a consistent, welcoming presence in our students' lives this year more than ever. Show your support for all they have done with a donation to the Wayzata Education Fund. Each donation made in honor of a teacher or staff until June 1 will include a special certificate of thanks from you, and every donation of $25 or more will come with a bundtlet from Nothing Bundt Cakes. Whether they’ve helped make a difference in-person or virtually, show your appreciation by participating in our Thank a Teacher program.
Community Education New offering! Wayzata Community Ed and Twin City Tennis Camps are pleased to offer tennis lessons for ages 5-18 at Central Middle School this summer. Full or half-day camps available. Find more information and register on the Twin City Tennis website.
