Blog Update: October 8

 
I hope that you had a great weekend!!

Paws With a Cause

Thank you to all of you who donated items during our recent collection for Paws With a Cause. We can’t wait to show you my new dog!

M.S. Students had a good time at ArtPrize.  They spent all day Thursday downtown exploring the artwork.

 We had a great Grandfriend’s Day on Friday, thank you to all who helped out!

P.E. News
We will be doing fitness testing during October.  We still have 4 more tests to go: the sit & reach, sit-ups, pull-ups and the shuttle run.

 Learning Commons News
5th graders will celebrate Real Reads with a Fiesta Lunch on Monday, October 15. They will be coming dressed up as a book character.

Many students already have overdue books. The checkout period is two weeks and, if students do not return their books within that time, they will receive an overdue notice to remind them. Please check with your students to make sure they are remembering to return their library books.

Mark your calendars for the Scholastic Book Fair here at Rockford Christian the week of November 26! Books make great Christmas presents! We could also use a few volunteers to help out. Call Kathy Ruiter or Bonnie McGinnis (574-6428) if you would like to participate.

Students in grades 1-4 have regularly scheduled tech integration times in the computer lab.  Students in grades 5-8 use their netbooks for tech integration.

Family Time
Thanks to  Shannon Jammal-Hollemans who did the  K-5th and Melanie Veldman 6th – 8th:

Be sure to ask your child to tell you about this Family Time.

Since school now begins at 8:35 AM, we will plan on Family Time beginning at 8:45 till about 9:05 or 9:10 each week (depending on what is planned).

Everyone is invited to attend our Family Time on Monday mornings at 8:45 AM.
We hope to see you there whenever you can make it!

Did you know I do the monitors?

If you have any Prayer Requests, you can email me.  I would love to pray for you and your family!! Please specify if you would like everyone to know and I will put it on the monitors.

“He has shown you, O man, what is good.  And what does the Lord require of you?  To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God” (Micah 6:8).
I’m praying for you  to walk humbly with your God.

Thanks for all that you do for God’s kingdom!
Mr. Dave
