THE BEAR ESSENTIALS
Weeks of November 24 & December 1, 2025
Hello, Bear Families
Happy Thanksgiving from our school family to yours!
As we move into this short week with just two days of school, we want to remind you that there will be no school from Wednesday, November 26, through Friday, November 28. We hope the break gives you a chance to slow down and enjoy time with the people and traditions that matter most. We will welcome students back to class on Monday, December 1, 2025.
We are so thankful for your partnership and support in helping our students grow and learn every day. Your involvement and encouragement make all the difference.
May your holiday be filled with joy, laughter, and time spent with loved ones. We hope your days are restful, your table is filled with your favorite foods, and your hearts are full of gratitude.
Wishing you a warm and wonderful Thanksgiving.
Go Bears!
Mr. Reynolds, Mr. Hickey, Mrs. Bukosky, Mr. Petrick, and Mr. Schley

Fall Play
WAAC Club is Looking for Participants
The WAAC club is looking for more participants for our exchange this school year to Marchfield, MA, near Boston. World as a Community (WAAC) is an exchange program at RHS. An exchange involves a student traveling to a host city and staying with a host student for 3-4 days and attending school with them for a day. During the stay, the student will experience their host's culture through touring their city's landmarks and museums. The students from the host school will then travel to Wyandotte and we will show them the same hospitality.
