Hello Elm Creek Public School families! Below is the ECPS free and reduced price meal application for you to print out and complete if you haven't done so already. We understand that it is not required for families to complete a meal application, however, we highly recommend that each family does, as it greatly impacts our food service funding. As a reminder - if your student(s) qualified for free or reduced price meals at the end of the 2023-2024 school year, your student(s) will continue to receive those same meal benefits ONLY for the first 30 days of school (September 19th, 2024). After the first 30 days of school, your student's meal status will be updated to "full price" unless we have received an updated meal application for the current school year or if your student automatically qualifies for free/reduced price meals. If you have any questions regarding free and reduced meals, please feel free to call the main office at (308)856-4300 or send an email to morgan.schnacker@elmcreekschools.org Thank you!
We are sure lucky to have this lady in the office. She juggles a lot of financial information and paperwork on a daily basis! She makes sure we always have what we need for refs and workers. She defines the word flexible and hard working for us. Thanks for all you do Linda!! You're GOLD!!
Hello Families!
Elm Creek Public Schools is actively collaborating with the Buffalo County Sheriff’s Office to address the ongoing closures of Interstate 80 due to road construction and the resulting significant increase in traffic on HWY 30. Our top priority is to ensure the safety of our students as they travel to school, events, and home on our buses and vans. In the event of a closure, we will make every effort to avoid HWY 30 and will use the overpass on US-183 to cross whenever possible. For athletics and activities, we will carefully select the safest routes for our teams based on their destinations. If a closure occurs at the beginning or end of the school day and we are informed, we will promptly notify everyone through the app.
Thank you for your understanding.
The 4th, 5th, and 6th graders had a great first day of school!🌟 Go Buffaloes!💙🦬💛

Huge shoutout to the Elm Creek Parent Staff Appreciation Group for breakfast and great coffee this morning from all of our staff. We all loved it and are so thankful. You are all so great to us and we are so happy to get to work with all these great kids. GO BUFFS!!
We are looking forward to Open House tonight at 5 PM. Here is some information for you as they finish up construction on the streets. The road on the South side of the school is now a one way heading West. It will be open all the way through tonight and one way signs are up. The road on the West side of the school will be a one way headed North. It will hopefully be open in a few days. The Village is working hard to get things cleaned up on the streets to paint parking spots on the South side. They will have cones out this afternoon/evening and tomorrow on the South side of the school. Please do not move them and/or park in those areas as they are working hard to get things done. Huge shout out to Dusty and all the folks at the village and everyone else working hard for us. We are excited for the new year!
