Reardan Weekly

As temperatures continue to drop, please ensure your child comes to school dressed for cold weather, including a warm coat, hat, and gloves, as students will go outside for recess whenever conditions safely allow. To help us keep our Lost and Found to a minimum, please label all outerwear and winter gear with your child’s first and last name so we can quickly return misplaced items to their owners.

Additionally, we are always grateful for the support of our school community! If you are interested in helping out at school events or in the classroom this year, please take a moment to complete our District Volunteer Interest Survey. Thank you for your continued partnership in keeping our students warm, safe, and supported.

We are thrilled to celebrate third-grader Riverlea, who represented her grade as our student speaker during this year’s Veterans Day assembly! To earn the honor of reading Cheryl Dyson’s poem, "Veterans Day," third-grade students practiced their public speaking skills in front of their classmates. Riverlea did an outstanding job delivering the poem with poise and clarity so the entire audience could hear her. Way to go, Riverlea!

Fall Conferences are Monday, November 23 8:00-3:00pm, and 4:00-7:30pm, and Tuesday, November 20 8:00-11:30am. You can schedule your child’s Parent-Teacher using the Conference Scheduler in Skyward Family Access. If you have any questions or need help, just give Pam a call at the elementary office. We will try and honor all requests; however, conferences will be scheduled on a first come, first served basis.

Dear Reardan Families,

Thank you for another wonderful week of learning and working with your students!

This week, we had the opportunity to celebrate Veterans Day with our community. Our ASB did an outstanding job organizing a breakfast for our veterans and their families, followed by a wonderful program honoring those who have served our country. It was a special morning, and I am grateful to everyone who helped make it possible.

As I reflect on the week, I am reminded how thankful I am to serve as a leader in this community and to have the opportunity to spend each day with your students. Thank you for sharing them with us!

Go Screaming Eagles!

From underwater habitats to the Stone Age, our Options enrichment students are bringing their learning to life!

In Let’s Make a Zoo, students are discovering what animals eat, how they live, and what makes each habitat unique. This week, they put their creativity to work designing these awesome aquarium dioramas!

Meanwhile, Artifacts and Artistry students are stepping back in time to explore how people once lived, built, created, and survived. Then they use what they discover to create a piece of that world! This week, they explored the Stone Age through their own Neolithic art.

So much curiosity, creativity, and hands-on learning happening in our classrooms!

We are seeing continued concerns nationwide with scam calls and fraudulent phone messages. Please remind your children and family members to be cautious when answering calls or responding to unknown numbers. Scammers may pretend to be law enforcement, government agencies, banks, or even family members in an attempt to obtain personal information or money. Some are now using AI-generated voices to imitate people you know. Never share passwords, verification codes, or personal information over the phone, and don't feel pressured to act immediately if a caller creates a sense of urgency. When in doubt, hang up and independently verify the caller. A few extra seconds of caution can help protect your family.

Our routines are coming along nicely, and we're continuing to bring new items and more scratch cooking into our menus as we settle into our roles for the year. This week, students enjoyed build-your-own burrito bowls, with plenty of fresh options from the salad bar to mix and match and make their meals their own!

With Veterans Day earlier this week, we'd like to take a moment to thank all the veterans in our community for their service and sacrifice. We appreciate you!

A quick reminder to families: If you haven't already completed a Free and Reduced-Price Meal Application for this school year, we encourage you to do so. Applications and additional information on how to apply can be found on the district website under the Food Services section in the Departments menu. If you have questions or need help with the application process, please don't hesitate to reach out to Nutrition Services.

Have a wonderful weekend!
