About Guion Creek Elementary
The staff and students are #PikeProud to be a part of the Guion Creek Elementary family!
Be the One
Our theme this school year is to Be the One, meaning that all students and staff are working to be the person who makes a difference for someone else through their words and actions!
Gator Gotcha Tickets
Each Friday, we open up the school store for students who received "Gator Gotcha" tickets from their teacher or other staff members around the school. Tickets are given to students caught "Doing the Right Thing", "Treating People Right", or demonstrating our life skill of the month.
Resources are All Around Us!
Our students and teachers work together to create anchor charts about topics learned, and then students are encouraged to use these resources during independent work time as reference tools.
Daily Math Review
Daily Math Review is a spiral review time for our scholars so that they are exposed to a variety of math concepts in addition to their unit of study. Students are then given the opportunity to explain their thinking to the class, which helps demonstrate student understanding at a higher level.
STEM Time
STEM Time in the classroom allows for collaboration, creativity, and problem solving. Students work together towards a common goal, test out their plans, and then work together to adapt as needed!

Over the past year, our teachers have been using Blocksi in the classroom to monitor and encourage students to be on task while using their Chromebooks. We are excited to announce that as a parent/guardian you will be able to use Blocksi Parent with your student’s school issued Chromebook.
