Welcome to Canoe Creek K-8, Osceola County School District’s premier environmental STEM school. My name is David Noyes and I am extremely honored to be serving this community. Through a hands-on, minds-on approach to learning, students here at CCK8 work to develop the critical thinking and problem-solving skills necessary for the 21^st century. It is our belief that the E-STEM focus at Canoe Creek K8 helps to prepare students for the future and provides them with the tools to build sustainable, informed communities that are environmentally sound.

Here at CCK8, we believe that our students are among the best and brightest with a unique set of talents and potential. It is our job to nurture and strengthen this each day. Families, teachers, support staff, community members, and administration all play a part in helping our students achieve academic excellence. Together we can make a positive difference for all at CCK8. For this reason, I encourage you to participate in SAC (School Advisory Council), PTA, and to become an OASIS approved volunteer. I look forward to continuing our strong family partnerships and community collaborations that will help to support our Canoe Creek K8 scholars in achieving academic excellence.

Last year, we asked each of our stakeholders to rise together. The opportunity to come together as one, is unique, challenging and rewarding. Despite the challenges that come with every school year, our students and staff have persevered together and grown stronger as a result. No matter what we faced, our team stayed connected and remained steadfast on the mission and vision of CCK8. This year, we have chosen the theme: “Together We Create a Better Tomorrow.” Each day we will work to challenge each other to create a better tomorrow.

Canoe Creek K8 is destined for greatness!
