What do you like best about Clear Creek?

This is my 9th year at Clear Creek and I can honestly say Clear Creek is unique in that our teachers and

staff are a family! They welcomed me with open arms back in 2012 and it has felt like the right place to 

be on my teaching journey! The teachers and staff love the students they work with and build meaningful

relationships with their students. We work together to help our students learn to their highest potential by

providing differentiated instruction to meet the needs of each individual child. We also have the highest 

expectations of all children and challenge both ourselves and students to achieve those expectations.

I earned my Bachelor’s Degree from Wingate University, my masters from Winthrop 

University and am a National Board Certified Teacher. I am in my tenth year of teaching at

 Clear Creek. I love teaching Physical Education at Clear Creek. The staff is supportive 

and the students are excited to participate in PE class as well as extracurricular activities 

that I sponsor such as Walking Club, Physical Activity Club and Stay and Play days.

My favorite food is potatoes. My favorite children’s book is “Winners Never Quit!” 

by Mia Hamm. If I could learn anything, I would love to learn to quilt. In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my family, cooking, gardening and playing pickleball.

I cook on the grill year round and love the outdoors. I am a big tennis fan and enjoy 

attending tennis tournaments locally and abroad.

Mrs. Kirby 

Hello, my name is Connie Kirby. Everyone calls me Ms. Connie. I work in the front office 

here at Clear Creek as the secretary. I have a long history with Clear Creek. My two 

daughters went here and now I have grandchildren that go here. I have been working at 

Clear Creek for 15 years, first as a technology instructor and now in the front office. I have 

loved my career here and feel very lucky to work with such wonderful teachers and staff. 

This is a great school.

Some of my favorite things to do is to spend time with family, especially my grandchildren. 

I also enjoy going for long walks on the beach or hiking in the mountains. I also love to read. Books can make you feel like you are part of the story or they can take you to faraway places without leaving your home. A fun fact not 

many people know about me is, during my college years, I use to act in plays and sang in 

an opera. If I could learn something new, it would be to learn how to play the guitar or a 

harp.
