 RCS is a Peanut Free Campus

As we have begun another school year, it is important to remember that RCS is a "peanut-free" campus. We have been "peanut-free" for a number of years now because of the very severe allergies that some of our students live with. We are proud to be a community that is sensitive to the needs of our students. Thank you to all of our parents and students for being sensitive to this policy and for not sending any food items with peanuts in them to school. If you have any questions about this policy, please contact the school office: 616-574-6400.

Box Tops for Education

We continue to collect Box Tops for Education. Funds received from this program are used by our 5th grade classroom for their end-of-year events.

 

Family Time

Thank you to Nick Underwood for coming in to worship with the elementary grades and playing his guitar for us.

Pray for the middle school students on Thursday as they go to ArtPrize. 

Prayer Requests

If you have any Prayer Requests, I will put them up on the monitors!  I would love to pray for you and your family!!
