RPI Pulse Newsletter

Good Morning RPI Families,

Earlier this week, I sent an email related to the start of school day. Our teachers are incredibly intentional with their planning. They do their very best to maximize instructional time. Even things like "morning meeting" are set up in ways to check in with kids to see what needs they might have, to gauge their understanding of a topic from the previous day, etc. Your kids NEED to be here with us for the full day, as much as possible.

Thank you (for those who drop off in the morning) for responding and getting them here on time OR walking in to discuss with us the why. It is so important for our relationships and trust to be built.

Lastly, if you pick up at the end of the day, kids must be out of the building and off campus by 3pm. RPEL is still in session and we CANNOT supervise your student. In order to keep them safe AND allow for an excellent end of the day for our friends at RPEL, our students must be off campus (again, if they are waiting for a ride) by 3pm. If they are at an after school activity...different story. However, please make sure you are here on time to pick them up!

Lastly, if you miss the email, or know someone who needs this weekly newsletter, it is posted on our Facebook page and our schools website under the News section!

Yours in Rocket Pride,

Scott

Hello! Here is this weeks band bulletin- https://www.smore.com/yfvx6

Hey Parents,

Did you know that R-P has a Facebook page for Good News?

Find the page and answer the questions in order to join.

This group has been created to spread good news and encouragement to the Reeths-Puffer School Community. It’s a lot of fun too!

Don't forget... Respect, Pride, and Integrity is the "Rocket Way"!

Here are the group rules:

1. Pre-Approval Required. All posts are subject to approval prior to being posted.
2. Kindness Keeps You. Group administration reserves the right to refuse or remove members or posts from the group.
3. Be Kind and Courteous. Let's maintain Respect, Pride and Integrity, "The Rocket Way". Disagreements are unavoidable but kindness is required.
4. No Hate Speech or Bullying. Make sure everyone feels safe. Bullying of any kind isn't allowed, and degrading comments about things like race, religion, culture, sexual orientation, gender or identity etc. will not be tolerated.
5. No Promotions or Spam. Give more than you take to this group. Self-promotion, spam and irrelevant links aren't allowed.
6. Respect Everyone's Privacy. Being part of this group requires mutual trust. Authentic, expressive discussions make groups great, but may also be sensitive and private. What's shared in the group should stay in the group.

Looking forward to seeing you there! Make sure to answer the questions when you join!

August/September Menu

Medication shall not be brought to school unless it is essential to the health of the student.

Medications which need to be taken in school must be administered by certified school personnel (or designee) in the presence of another adult. Parents must bring medication to the school office in the original container and file a written statement. NO STUDENT MAY BRING ANY MEDICATION TO SCHOOL.

Contact the office if you have any questions.

From time to time, issues may arise with your child. While we are here as a service to our community, our (Ms. San Miguel and I) focus is on the teaching and learning in the building. If you need to speak with us, we are asking that you schedule an appointment in the main office, call us or send us an email. Thank you for your understanding.
