A Message from the Principal:
๐งก๐ Grateful for Our Rayburn Family!
Dear Rayburn Parents,
As we enter November, I want to express my heartfelt gratitude to our amazing Rayburn students, families, and staff! Thank you for your continued support, for ensuring your children attend school regularly, and for keeping us informed of absences.
October was filled with wonderful memories! From our creative Storybook Pumpkins and successful 5th Grade STEM Night to our exciting McHi Homecoming Parade, our Rayburn families truly showed their Rocket pride!
Learning continues to be our top priority! As students in grades 3โ5 prepare for fall district benchmarks, our leadership team and teachers are using assessment data to strengthen instruction and address learning needs. Through targeted small-group instruction, intervention, and tutoring, we remain committed to helping every student grow and succeed.
๐ก Save the Date! Our Annual Fall Festival is Saturday, November 14! Join us for an evening of games, food, and rides. Your support helps fund campus improvements, student activities, and incentives. Visit the Sam Rayburn PTO Facebook page for details.
November is another busy month! Please stay connected through campus emails, newsletters, and announcements so you don't miss upcoming events.
Thank you for your partnership and for making Rayburn Elementary such a special place to learn and grow. We are truly grateful for our Rocket family!
๐งก๐ Together, We Soar!
