Ms. Rieth’s 5th graders from Rock Creek spread love this Valentine’s Day by delivering cards to two assisted living facilities. 💖
The students, amazed by the amenities, quickly brightened residents' days—especially with one student acting as a tiny Valentine’s Day Santa! 🎅 At the second stop, a heartwarming moment occurred when a resident recognized a volunteer’s granddaughter. For some, these were the only Valentine’s cards they received. 💌
A day filled with joy and meaningful connections! 🌟

🌟 Certified Employee of the Month: Carly Butt! 🌟
Let’s give a big round of applause to Carly Butt, Certified Employee of the Month for April and kindergarten teacher at Rock Creek Elementary School! 👏🍎
Originally from Bellflower, California, Carly became a teacher to share her love of learning and to create a classroom that’s safe, loving, and full of fun. One of her favorite things? When students actually laugh at her jokes! 😄
Described in one word as loyal, Carly draws daily inspiration from her incredible teaching partners, who help her grow. She loves reading, sipping coffee (just not lukewarm!), and exploring Idaho adventures with her husband and their dog. 🐾☕📚 One day, she hopes to visit Ireland! 🍀
For Carly, the best days on the job are whenever she can smile and laugh with her students—because learning should always be fun! 💛
💬 Principal Note:
“Carly is truly a ray of sunshine at Rock Creek. She’s always positive, loving, and brings humor to the classroom that makes learning joyful. Her compassion, warmth, and ability to see the good in everyone uplift both students and staff alike. We are so lucky to have her!”

👏 Hands Together for Our Classified Employee of the Month for April: Robert Watkins! 👏
Robert Watkins is the head custodian at Rock Creek Elementary School! 🧹🏫
He was born and raised in Twin Falls and loves watching baseball with his wife and close friends. ⚾ One word that sums him up? Caring. 💙
Robert draws inspiration from his wife, whose dedication to her students—whether in the classroom or on the field—motivates him every day. He chose his career because of the people he gets to work with, and he hopes to be remembered for being him.
One day he would like to watch a game at every MLB stadium. And his favorite moments on the job? Every time a student calls out, “Hi Mr. Wobert!” 🥹
💬 Principal Note:
“Robert is an absolute gem in every way. He’s incredibly kind and helpful, always takes on projects without hesitation, and makes sure everything at Rock Creek runs smoothly. He even helps run the chess club after school on Mondays! His sense of humor and positive energy are contagious. The kids absolutely adore him, and so do we!”
