Welcome Back to School!

We had a great first week of learning! During our school-wide morning meetings, we learned about being self-aware. We have discussed how we take care of ourselves, each other, and our learning spaces. Students did a great job learning all about rules and procedures to keep us safe and for optimal learning to take place. It was a great week of fun with friends and learning! Thank you for sharing your children with us, and for being our partner in education!

Sincerely, Mrs. Farris

Car Rider Line-IMPORTANT!

Please line up west-bound on Fletcher to enter the school drive. If you turn off of Barrington onto Fletcher, you will need to go down Fletcher, turn around, and get lined up to enter the parking lot. This has worked very well the past few days, so please help us with making the car rider line run smoothly and alleviate congestion on Barrington.


In order to keep students safe, students may not be dropped off in the parking lot and allowed to walk up by themselves, nor can they be let out anywhere else other than in the car line where attended by Rollins staff. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Snacks

Parents may send a snack with their child to have during the day. We ask that if you send a snack, please send a healthy option. It is not required to send only healthy snacks or only the ones on this list. This list is just a suggestion. Children may not share their snacks with others. We do have school-wide snack days. Our first school-wide snack day will not be until September.

PTA Update

Hello Trailblazer Families!


We hope this message finds you all well and ready for another fantastic year at Rollins! As you know, it takes a village to support our students, staff, and school family and our Trailblazer Village is the best! The PTA supports the school in multiple ways throughout the year through fun events, teacher appreciation efforts, volunteer coordination, fundraising for clubs/new equipment/supplies, and more. WE NEED YOU to join us as we blaze into the '23-'24 school year!


You can support the school in big and small ways:

  • Follow us on Facebook and share PTA needs/requests with your friends and family throughout the year
  • Volunteer at our special events (opportunities range from decorating, serving snacks, clean-up, manning simple game/activity stations, etc...)
  • Spend some time during the school days assisting with simple tasks such as copying, cutting, stapling, laminating, etc...
  • Donate items and/or funds throughout the year for teacher appreciation efforts, class celebrations, etc...
  • Work with other same-grade-level parents during special occasions to assist with special after school nights, graduations, celebrations, etc...
  • Connect the PTA with local businesses who might be interested in becoming a Rollins Community Partner
  • Partner with your child's teacher and assist with class celebrations and other small tasks
  • Attend PTA meetings in person or via Zoom to have a voice in how funds are spent, future planning, etc...


You can be as involved and informed as you wish and it all starts with purchasing your PTA membership down below!

*Purchasing a PTA membership does not require any commitment to volunteer or be involved. It simply ensures that you receive our communications throughout the year on upcoming events, volunteer needs, fundraisers, and more.


Like and follow us on Facebook to stay in the loop: https://www.facebook.com/RollinsTrailblazers2021


We look forward to serving our Trailblazers with you again this year!
