The Red Mill Reader

May/June 2025 Edition

This and That at Red Mill

April was an exciting month for students and staff at Red Mill! We began with a Math 24 competition at FVIS where our 4th grade mathletes made us proud. The PTO held their annual Eggstravaganza and provided a morning full of fun! We cheered on our athletes at the WSSD Special Olympics where they brought home a lot of gold! We held a Volunteer Appreciation Breakfast to thank our many volunteers for all that they do. Lastly, we blasted off into space in preparation for the PSSAs! Check out our PSSA pump-up video here!

It's hard to believe we are now in the final stretch of the school year. As we look ahead to May and June, let's not forget to "stop and smell the roses" and appreciate all that we've been able to accomplish here at Red Mill this year. We will be back in early/mid July with another update. It's not over yet, so please take a moment to read all that we have in store below...

Thank You Volunteers!

On April 16th, we held a Volunteer Appreciation Breakfast to thank our volunteers that helped this school year! Your time and commitment to our school makes Red Mill a great place to teach and learn. Events such as classroom parties, Trunk or Treat, fundraisers, and more would not be possible without you. We appreciate all that you do for us! Thank you Mrs. Naugle for organizing a wonderful event!

You can check out our "Thank You" video here to see the smiling faces that you've helped all year long!

As we look ahead to next year, we hope you will consider taking the time to join our community for the various PTO and school-run events that occur throughout the year! These events would not be posible without you and make such an impact on our students!
