    Work-Life Balance

    Wolf Creek Public Schools strives to provide an environment that can create a balance between work and personal life. At the same time, we are committed to keeping lines of communication with families open to address any questions and concerns. 

    You may know that in Wolf Creek we practice what is known as the 7 to 7 rule.


    That simply means that unless in the case of an emergency we encourage our staff to not respond to emails between the hours of 7:00 PM and 7:00 AM. Wolf Creek deeply appreciates you working with us to respect this work-life balance of our staff which benefits all. Additionally, teachers will not likely be able to respond immediately to calls or emails during the school day, but teachers will do their absolute best to return calls and messages at the end of the school day.


    We are committed to building strong relationships focused on cooperation.
    We truly appreciate your partnership in education as we work together on the success of all students.

    my strategies.  I know the end in mind is solving the problem.

                I will always ask an adult if I need help.

    Put First Things First:

    I can show others that I am a good friend. I will can choose to use my

     words first to problem solve or to communicate my feelings.

    Think Win-Win:

    I can solve problems by communicating politely 

    and appropriately with others, even if I’m upset or feel hurt.

    Seek First to Understand, Then to be Understood:

    I can listen to and understand more than one point of view.  

    I can understand and listen to others when they say STOP. 

     I understand what I do affects others.  

    Synergize:

    I can learn from others and be able to work and play in a friendly way. 

    Sharpen the Saw:

    I can eat healthy and get lots of sleep so that I am better 

    at problem solving in any situation. 

    I can ask my parents for help.
