RCES FAMILY NEWSLETTER

🏫 Message from RCES Administration

RCES Families,

Our first week is officially behind us—and what an incredible start to the 2026–2027 school year! Our students spent the week learning expectations, practicing safety, building friendships, and beginning to understand what it means to be part of the RCES community.

We also celebrated a wonderful Back to School Bash! Thank you to our families and our incredible community partners who showed up in such a big way for our students. Your presence, support, and investment in our children matter. We are proud of the start we’ve made, grateful for the community that surrounds us, and excited for everything ahead. Here’s to a year of learning, growing, and Building Blocks of Excellence together!

💙💛

With gratitude,

Dr. Jacqui Lowe-Barton & Dr. Slaney
