Thank You!!
Thank you to Christi Moran for taking on the task of ensuring ALL of our students could view the program. She made sure the technology was ready, and she served as "camera woman". Great job, Christy!
Thank you to Sally Hall. Sally always takes the extra time to make sure our staff events go off without a hitch. She has made multiple runs to Sam's and other stores to get our supplies (think, aluminum pans for Friendsgiving, sodas and water for treat days, orange snacks, paper goods, donuts for early morning meetings, etc.). Monday we'll have a wonderful Friendsgiving, but know that on Friday evening, Sally was setting up the workroom and lounge to make sure it was ready for us. We love you, Sally!!
Student Awards
It is important for Diana and Steffani to know when you are presenting awards since parents of the Star Students are invited to attend. Please remember to call those parents and invite them, and let them know the awards will be presented in the classroom (this is different from last year). We are only able to accommodate parents of the Star Students. For this reason, I do not advertise when student awards take place. Please wait until after you have presented the awards to let parents know the awards are coming home. All parents will be able to attend the end-of-year awards presentation on the last day of school (Kindergarten-4th grade) or on May 29 (5th grade).
November/December Twitter Challenge #RESholidaybingo
Congratulations to our October Twitter Challenge winners: Stacie Moreland, Jennifer Vargas, Emily Gunn, Connie Kubis, Christi Moran, and Kelly Oetken
This next challenge is similar to our Summer Selfie Bingo Challenge. This is a Holiday Bingo Challenge. You will receive one drawing slip per bingo (up to 5 bingos) and 6 drawing slips if you get a blackout! When you complete a challenge on the bingo card, you'll need to post a picture (or video) of you completing the task AND a picture of the bingo card with that square marked off. Save the picture below to use in your posts. If you need help with how to mark the card or how to post the picture, there are several staff members that can help--just ask! Have fun with this one!! Be sure to tag your tweets with #RESholidaybingo
See the example below the bingo picture. Thank you, Courtney!

Information about the upcoming hoedowns was shared in the November Rocket Register. Please help us communicate this event to our parents. It is new this year, and it replaces our traditional western day dancing. Please plan to come watch your students dance for at least a portion of their large group time.
