ICYMI: Each year the RCS graduating class leaves a legacy donation for the school. The class of 2026 left a donation for replacing the broken water fountains in the gymnasium and parish center. They are now replaced and fully operational! Bonus - they feature a water bottle refilling station, making it easy for our athletes to refill and stay hydrated!

THANK YOU CLASS OF 2026! And thank you to Mr. Barnes for getting these replaced and operational so quickly!

Thank you, and God bless!

John W. Keeley-Principal

IF YOU HAVE NOT YET SIGNED UP:

We understand that your time is valuable. We also know that providing the best education for your child is important. That's why we are encouraging everyone to activate their student's Read-A-Thon account as soon as possible. The instructions are straightforward, making it quick and hassle-free, and it should take less than 5 minutes of your time.

This account will serve as a hub for recording and monitoring your child's progress as a Reader in the event, and for you to share their Read-A-Thon message with friends and family. Use the link below to activate your student's Reader account:

Fall Sports Update:

The cross country team has had a great season! We had a lot of personal bests! We have championships this Saturday at timbercreek at 12pm. November 7th we will be heading to states in North Jersey.

This Volleyball season the girls have been playing really well! The 5th and 6th grade ‘O’ team is undefeated so far this season! The 7th & 8th Grade 'Y' team has 8-1 record and is currently leading their league! The 8th Grade 'C' team is currently 7-5, but their record doesn’t do justice to how well they have been playing. Each of their losses has been in a very close third set (They play best of 3).

Trunk or Treat: $5 per child or $10 per family; participating cars are free. Bring candy if decorating a trunk. Purchase Trunk or Treat tickets / register

Additional reminders:

• Candy donations: Send in a bag of Halloween candy for the Trunk or Treat event. Each bag earns an entry into a special prize drawing.

• Label candy donations: Include your child's name and homeroom on each bag.

Soon all students will be rolled over to the 2027-28 school year in Parent Portal (Finalsite) and invited to Re-enroll for next year - more information to come. After this is done, the checklist items will no longer be available to fill out for this school year. Before then, IT IS IMPERATIVE each student has all of their required checklist items completed prior to this rollover. This includes ACE registration, Walker Permission forms, Immunization records, Sport Physicals, Medical Consent form and more. So if there is a chance you will need an ACE or Walker badge at any point this year - sign-up today. Login here to ensure all required and optional (if applicable) checklist items are complete. If you submitted paper documents disregard incomplete checklist items.
