Clark Creek ES STEM Academy Earns Prestigious School Bell Award

The Georgia Association of Elementary School Principals presents the School Bell Award to 10 schools in Georgia each year in recognition of outstanding curriculum and organizational leadership initiatives. This is the eighth time in the last decade that a Cherokee County School District school has been honored.

Clark Creek ES STEM Academy, led by Principal Joey Moss, earned the award for the program, Creating a STEM Culture. Honored initiatives must demonstrate strong involvement of staff, students, parents, and community, in addition to showing positive results.

The phenomenal positive culture at Clark Creek is a big reason why its STEM program has earned international accreditation and recognition, and Principal Moss and her staff deserve high praise for their successes, said Superintendent of Schools Dr. Brian V. Hightower. The staff, parents, and partners are all in for the students. Together, theyve created a model STEM school that encourages community engagement and business partnerships that provide real-world learning experiences for students.

This spring, Clark Creek became the first school in CCSD and only the 183rd in the world to earn STEM certification from AdvancED, the international accreditation agency for educational institutions.

The school will be formally recognized and presented with the award at the Associations Fall Principals Conference.
