 | VETERANS DAY ANNOUNCEMENT | |
 | | Crestline Elementary School’s Salute to Veterans will be very different this year, but we want our students to be able to honor veterans this November in a Celebration Tour. Provided that there is enough interest, the tour will take place on Friday, November 6, with a rain date of Monday, November 9. Veterans will gather at 9:30 at Mountain Brook Baptist Church. The tour will begin at 10:00. Veterans will ride by Crestline while students cheer for them. It will be a wonderful opportunity for students to celebrate veterans and show their appreciation for their service. Let’s make this a fun celebration! Please invite a veteran and plan to drive him or her in the procession through Crestline. Your veteran can be a family member or friend. Students who are honoring veterans are welcome to ride in the vehicle with them, but it is not required. If you would like to honor a veteran, click the link below and complete the online form by Friday, October 27, so we can finalize details and send more information to participants.

 | | STAFF SPOTLIGHT: JOSH WATKINS Meet one of our fearless administrators who is the epitome of Cougar STRONG! Josh Watkins has been an assistant principal at Crestline for 11 years. Josh grew up in Springville, and now lives in Trussville with his wife Adrienne, son Caleb (9), and daughter Hannah Kate (3).
Favorite Candy: Candy Corn or Reese's Pieces Favorite Football Team: UAB Blazers! What do you love most about Crestline: "I love Crestline because of the community that exists. Even though we have a big school, it feels really friendly. All of our teachers know the families in the community. Teachers share responsibility for the success of every student, even if they don't directly teach them. Everyone truly cares about each other. That does not happen everywhere. So, when you find that type of community you know it is special. " |
