This week, four students earned the right to be called PAWS Bulldogs of the Week. These students must have had a lot of PAWS in the buckets, because their names were randomly drawn to be recognized Friday afternoon on the announcements. These students earned +20 points for their house, this picture on our PAWS Champions bulletin board, and that special BIG PAW you see below! Great job being Responsible, Respectful, Safe, and Kind! Keep up the great work!

Hey, check this out! Fourth graders are eligible for this Federal Parks pass which gives free entry into National Parks-it's good through August.

If your child is interested in participating in band and/or chorus next year as 5th graders at RMS, we ask that you please complete the google form below. Band and Chorus take place during "Bulldog Block" and will be offered daily except during our Academic Advisory period when students can receive academic remediation.

Please remember that CHANGES TO DISMISSAL CAN NOT BE MADE AFTER 1:30. Dismissal at a school this size has many different moving pieces, and we are proud of how safely and efficiently we can dismiss our students. When changes are called into the office late or a change is made in the dismissal line, it affects our entire process. You can help by calling in changes to your child's dismissal BEFORE 1:30. If you decide to come to the pick up line, and your child is scheduled for Daycare and you have not informed us of the change, please pick up your child at the Daycare pick up. You might have to wait in line behind the buses. Thank you!

This year, Phelps Elementary grade level concerts will take place during the school day, one per month, beginning this month. Please see the schedule for concerts below. Due to parking and school lunch start times, we ask parents to leave immediately after the program ends. Looking forward to beautiful music filling our cafeteria stage!

April 15: Grade 3 Music Concerts
