Blog Update Monday, October 6th

I hope that you had a good weekend!

PAWS with a Cause
Friends from “PAWS with a Cause” came to visit the preschool classes today, to teach us how a dog is trained to help me - Mr. Dave. We were excited to see a “foster puppy”!
The entire school collected items or donated money that PAWS staff need to accomplish the dogs’ training.  
I made a donation to “Paws With A Cause “ because you helped by buying some of my note cards. https://www.pawswithacause.org

Picture Day
*Retakes are scheduled for Wednesday, November 5
.
Pumpkins for Sale
You will be able to purchase an RCS homegrown pumpkin from the 2nd graders during morning recess beginning on Wednesday in the elementary hallway. Limit is 5 per household. These pumpkins are great for painting on or decorating for the harvest season! We will be also be selling pumpkins on Grandfriend’s day! All proceeds will go toward a charity chosen by the 2nd graders.

       
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.
5th graders will celebrate realistic fiction reading at the “Real Reads” breakfast celebration next Monday. They will be dressing up or bringing props to portray a favorite character from one of the books they’ve read.
