Swartz Parents: This is just a reminder that tomorrow Friday, May 31st will be a half day and our last day of school. This year has been an awesome school year for our students! Have a wonderful summer and we will see you in the upcoming 2024.25 school year.
Dismissal times are as follows: Swartz 10:40 AM, Salt Creek 10:50 AM and Albright 10:53 AM.


Swartz brought over the 4th graders to learn all about Albright as they will be our new class of 5th graders next year. ❤️🖤






We had a great turnout for Swartz's Open House and Art Show tonight. Thanks to all who were able to attend this beautiful night!











Big thanks to Willowbrook Warriors and High School Staff for coming to Swartz to read with our 3rd graders!







Good afternoon, Salt Creek 48 family.
As many of you know, a tragedy over the weekend impacted two of our former Vikings. Salt Creek 48 and our FTC have worked together to create a collection for Gabi and Alyssa Elguezabal. Alyssa graduated early and will attend the University of Iowa in the fall to become an audiologist, while Gabi will soon complete her freshman year at Willowbrook High School. The girls have plans for their futures, and we want to support them as best as possible.
