Message from Mrs. Reams
Randolph Families,
I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday. I am beyond thankful for our very special Randolph community!
We have some celebrations to report and so much to be thankful for:
- Our final APEX numbers are in…….We netted $22,737 in pledges, and had an additional $7325 in Corporate/Family Sponsorships! This gives us a total of $30,062! WOW! Many Thanks to everyone who made a pledge, who reached out for pledges, and those who were able to support our students during the event! We appreciate all the support! (More info in the PTA section below!)
- Congratulations to our GIRLS ON THE RUN crew who ran their 5K with strength, speed and smiles! A huge shout out to Ms. Mueller, Ms. Glaser and Ms. Shively for making this happen for our 3-5 roadrunners. We are very proud of you!
- Our Lego Robotics Teams "Hands of Power" won the robot design trophy and "Smelly Artists" won the project trophy in their recent competition. We are very proud of both teams! Thank you to Ms. DeArras, Mr. DeArras, Mr. Melton and Ms. Sykes for all of their hard work coaching our teams.
- The clearing for our Randolph Nature Center is underway. Thanks to the hard work of Ms. Gates, Ms. Gemmill, returning members of YOUTH UNITED, Randolph student and family volunteers, and of course, TRUETIMBER for their partnership! Check out their site if you want to see how awesome they are: https://truetimber.net/. We are so excited to move forward with this project!
