Note from the Principal
The first two weeks of school were a success, and our students have adjusted well. I am extremely proud of the students' perseverance and positivity during Math MAP and DIBELS testing.
Here is the schedule for the remainder of the tests this fall:
English Language Arts: September 4-5
Science: September 11-12
The results of your students’ testing will be shared at parent-teacher conferences at the beginning of October.
As the year continues, if you have questions or concerns, please reach out. You can communicate with us through any of the following options:
Call Crete Intermediate (402) 826-5833.
Go to the Crete Public Schools website and click on the yellow button on the right side of the screen that says “Let’s Talk.”
Go to the Crete Public Schools website, click on the intermediate tab and then select staff. You will be taken to a page with all the staff members and the option to email them.

Safety Update
Photo identification will be required when picking up students from the office during the school day. This measure is being implemented to ensure the safety and security of all our students. We appreciate your cooperation and understanding.
Our school will continue to use The “I Love U Guys” Foundation’s Standard Response Protocol (SRP). Students and staff will be training, practicing, and drilling the protocol.
The premise is simple - five specific actions could be performed during an incident. When communicating these, the action is communicated first with one common word and then simple directions. For example, if sheltering from severe weather, the students would be told "Shelter. Tornado sirens are sounding. Evacuate to a sheltered area." Execution of the action is performed by active participants, including students, staff, teachers, and first responders.
The SRP is based on the following actions: Hold, Secure, Lockdown, Evacuate, and Shelter. Please see the attached document for more informal
tion.

Attendance Updates:
Did you know...?
Don’t let 2 missed days define your year! Research shows that most students with just 2 absences in the first month of school go on to miss more than 25 days total. Start the year off strong by making sure students are in school whenever they are not sick.
