Blog Update Monday, Sep 9, 2013


Welcome to the 1st full week of school!!
 
Family Time
Thanks  Mrs. Werdon for Family Time!!

LEARNING COMMONS
In the library, kindergartners began the “Cat in the Hat READ” book bag reading program. They’re bringing home a book a day in their personalized book bags to share with their parents.  5th graders are exploring the genre of realistic fiction with REAL READS for the next 5 weeks.
All classes have started checking out books. Please remind students on their library day to return books they’ve finished reading. Hint: It’s a good idea to have a special shelf or box in the home to store library books so they are easy to locate.

Have you wondered who puts the information on the monitors?  Well, the secret is out!  It’s me!  If you have any prayer requests or announcements, feel free to email me at dworst@grcs.org.

 Event Deck – THIS coming Friday night,
September 13: This event will begin at 6:00 p.m. – come any time after 6:00—with your family for FREE Yesterdogs and fellowship with RCS families young and old. This will be a great night to celebrate and connect our current RCS families with former families and to connect all RCS families to GRCHS. Lyndi Bell, GRCHS admissions director, and Mark Stuit, GRCS alumni coordinator, are running this event for Eric and have recruited RCS families with students at GRCHS to assist. Should be a fun night!

Ms. Barrett’s brother created this theme logo!

Please continue to hold Mr. Burgess and his family in prayer as he continues to recover.  Check the Rockford Christian School Facebook page for updates.

Mrs. Wierenga’s Dad was just diagnosed with a non-cancerous disease that will be treated with chemo.  It will be a long road to recovery.  Please keep their family in your prayers as they care for him.

Mrs. Wierenga’s aunt has been waiting for a heart transplant for 3.5 years.  She finally received the call on Sept. 5 to get the transplant.  We rejoice in this news, but also pray for the donor family that is grieving.

Pray for 
United States and Syria with all of the issues

If you have any Prayer Requests
I will put it up here!  I would love to pray for you and your family!!

Friends from PAWS with a Cause
 are coming to visit the preschool classes on September 30 to teacus how a dog is trained to help MrDave. We thought it would exciting to have the entire school involved in collecting items or money that PAWS staff needs to accomplish their training.  Please consider adding to our collection by bringing in items from the list and placing them in the boxes by the entries until September 30  We can’t wait to see a Foster Puppy Thank you.
I will make a Donation to Paws With A Cause you can help me by buying some of my note cards.  Look for them on the trip table or ask the RCS office!

Peanut Free
Just a reminder that we continue to be a “peanut free” school. No peanut products are allowed at school.  Any questions, contact the school office

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