Jeffrey Pollard, Principal
Welcome to Allen Creek Elementary School (ACE)!
We are thrilled to welcome you and your family to the Allen Creek community. At ACE, we believe that every child can learn, grow, and thrive when they feel connected, supported, and inspired.
Growing as Learners
In our classrooms, students engage in meaningful learning experiences that spark curiosity, encourage creativity, and challenge them to think deeply. We work hard to build strong foundations in literacy and mathematics while providing opportunities for students to explore their interests and discover their strengths.
Growing as Community Members
Each day, we promote that students live by our touchstone, "Being our best selves, doing our best work: daily. We help students develop the skills they need to be successful friends, classmates, and citizens through our ACES Habits of Mind:
- Accepting – Thinking flexibly, appreciating different perspectives, and finding joy and humor in learning.
- Cooperative – Working together, managing impulses, and valuing the contributions of others.
- Empathetic – Listening with understanding, showing compassion, and reflecting on one's own thinking and actions.
- Supportive – Persevering through challenges, taking responsible risks, and encouraging others.
We believe these habits help students become confident, caring, and capable learners—both in school and beyond.
Staying Connected
We value strong partnerships with families and encourage you to reach out with questions, ideas, or feedback at any time. You can contact me by email, phone, or by stopping by ACE. I will also share important school information, updates, and celebrations each month through our Family Sways newsletter.
We look forward to a wonderful year of learning, growth, and fun together!
Warmly,
Jeffrey Pollard
Principal, Allen Creek Elementary School
