Coyote Country!

Day Creek Intermediate School opened its doors for students in the Etiwanda School District in August 2004. We are located in the northwest quadrant of the district’s boundaries and educate sixth, seventh, and eighth grade students. Approximately 1200 students from the city of Etiwanda and neighboring communities are enrolled at our school. Our school vision centers on the belief that failure is not an option and we encourage you to join us in supporting our students to help shape their future.

We are well on our way into the second half of the school year! Our data analyisis day in January was well worth the time invested in examining student achievement. It showed us that the majority of our students are making great progress in mastering the standards at their grade level. Examing our data also helps us identify areas we want to strengthen or gaps we want to close before the end of the school year.

Progress reports were sent home with students on Thursday, January 12 and second trimester ends on February 10. Upcoming events include the 6th Grade Camp information night on Wednesday, January 18th at 6:00 pm in the MPR and the Day Creek Science Fair on Wednesday, January 25th from 3:00 - 4:00 pm.

Parents may drop-off students along the curb in our parking lot; however, you may want to explore the new city passenger loading zones created along the east and west side of Day Creek Blvd in addition to the existing passenger loading zones along the southside of Coyote Dr. We also offer early campus supervision with gates opening at 7:15 AM. Talk with your child about the safe routes on and off our campus and make a plan that works for you and your family using all of the options available to you.
