This month, we celebrate the incredible principals of Killeen ISD who lead with vision, compassion, and dedication. Every day, they go above and beyond to support students, empower staff, and strengthen our school communities. 💙
Our principals are not just leaders. They are mentors, motivators, and champions for success. Thank you for the countless ways you inspire and impact lives across KISD!

We are celebrating with dress up days all week!
We have some wonderful substitute teachers here at Clear Creek! They are caring, dedicated, and here when we need them. These are two of the substitute teachers we had on campus this week!
We love our subs! 🥰
Athena has been attending school for only a month, but she comes to school happy and ready to learn all day, every day!
Noah is a quiet and sweet boy with the biggest smile. He is a very hard worker!
Avery has adapted extremely well to PreK3. She makes good choices, follows directions, and seems to love everything she does at school. I am extremely proud of Avery, keep up the good work!!
Tres goes above and beyond here in Pre-K 3. He tries his hardest with every activity that we do and is so bright. He is such a happy boy, and his smile brightens everyone’s day. He is kind to everyone and quick to help or comfort those around him who need it.
