I hope that you got
outdoors this weekend!
PAWS with a Cause
Friends from PAWS with a
Cause are coming to visit the preschool classes on September 30 to teach us how
a dog is trained to help me. We can’t wait to see a “foster puppyWe thought it would be
exciting to have the entire school involved in collecting items or money that
PAWS staff need to accomplish the dogs’ training. Please consider adding
to our collection by bringing in items from the list that teachers will send
with home with students. Place items from the list in the boxes by both entrances
beginning this week Wednesday until Monday morning, October 6. Thank you.
I will make a
donation to Paws With A Cause and you can help by buying some of my note
cards. Look for them on the TRIP table or ask the RCS office!
5th Grade News for this
week
This week the 5th grade
Environmental Classroom students will be helping their second grade buddies
harvest pumpkins in the pumpkin patch.
6th Grade News for this
week
This week the 6th grade
Environmental Classroom students will be participating in Operation Eradication
A-O (Autumn Olive). This invasive shrub is spreading across the midwest
after being brought over from Asia nearly 130 years ago. Recently the EC
students tagged over 200 autumn olive plants along the drive leading up to RCS.
The 6th graders will be arming themselves with shovels and strong backs
as they dig up this nasty invasive. Want to find out more? Go to http://msue.anr.msu.edu/news/autumn_olive_one_invasive_shrub

of the day at ArtPrize on Wednesday October 1. They will be gone from

Learning Commons News
Please ask your student
about books they have checked out from the library. They would love to share
them with you! Reading together is a fun and relaxing way to spend time with
your child and promotes literacy. Be aware of which day is their library day
and remind them to return books promptly.
