The RES Meet the Teacher/Back to School Night will be held on Monday, August 26th from 4:30 - 6:00 PM. This event is for students in KINDERGARTEN THROUGH GRADE 5. Families can come to the school and meet their teacher(s), drop off school supplies, and hear important information from the classroom teachers about the upcoming school year. We will hold 3 identical sessions lasting 25 minutes each. This will allow families to visit one, two, or three different sessions depending on the number of children in the family. Sessions will begin at 4:30, 5:00, and 5:30 with a short transition time between each session to allow families time to move to additional classrooms if necessary. We look forward to seeing you soon. Prekindergarten students do not attend this event. These students will have an orientation specifically for Prekindergarten on September 4th.

Prekindergarten students and families are invited to attend one of our Prekindergarten Orientations scheduled for Wednesday, September 4 at either 10:00 AM or 2:00 PM. Prekindergarten parents will be contacted directly by their child's teacher once teachers return to school in late August. During these calls, your child's teacher will introduce themselves to you. Parents will be provided important information about the Orientation and the Prekindergarten Program. Prekindergarten families are not expected to attend the Meet the Teacher/Back to School Night on August 26 since prekindergarten has its own orientation scheduled on September 4. The first day of school for Prekindergarten students is Thursday, September 5.
