During the 2024-2025 school year, at Rolling Hills Engineering Academy teachers and campus staff will plan, manage, and execute as we address how teaching and learning will occur on our campus. Our ultimate goal is student academic achievement and social-emotional well-being so we will be intentional about what we do daily to ensure students succeed both academically and socially.

Parents,

Please be sure your students are on time each and everyday! School begins at 8:10 AM and dismissal is at 4:00 PM.

Students are able to arrive at school at 7:40 AM. The campus doors will open at 7:40 AM.

• Students who are car riders or ride with daycare will need to be picked up promptly at 4:00 PM at dismissal time.
• We ask that car riders' parents remain in your vehicle and share your CurbSmart number once you pull up and our staff will assist you.
• All walkers will be escorted past the driveway to the crossing guard area.

Our campus doors open daily at 7:40 AM. Breakfast is served in the cafeteria daily from

7:40 AM to 8:05 AM. Please do not drop students off prior to 7:40 AM.

INSTRUCTION begins at 8:10 AM for all students.

In the spirit of the upcoming election, our students will participate with "Rolling Hills Election Day !" They will have the opportunity to compare the candidates from two children's books and learn about the voting process from the stories. They will then get to cast a ballot to vote during their lunch period by placing their ballot in the voter's box.

As a school community, you can join in on the fun by:

• Talking with your child about the importance of the voting process
• Tell your child about your first voting experience
• Re-read and/or discuss the books that were read in class and ask what they learned

We are excited to share this opportunity for students to particpate with this as Social Studies activity.
