Notes from the Office
Thank you for a great Halloween Celebration. See pictures and pumpkin carving winners below!
Weather is Changing!
It is time to bundle up your kids. Please keep in mind that students WILL go outside for recess and for PE if the temperature is above 18 degrees, slightly sprinkling or if it is windy. (PS: Thank you Mr. Shawn for shoveling snow on the weekend so our school was ready this past Monday!)
VETERANS DAY CEREMONY
RRE will be holding a Veterans Day flag raising ceremony on Friday November 10th at 8:10 a.m. on the plaza. We welcome our veterans in the Red Rocks community to attend. Any active duty, drilling reservists or retired military members are invited to attend in uniform. Uniform of the day is dress blues with ribbons.
DRESS FOR RESPECT Days for all K-5! Did you know Red Rocks students "interview" for jobs as a part of a 5th grade field trip? We've noted that kids like "special dress up days." We have a few "dress for respect" days on the calendar, and encourage students to dress like it is a special occasion, like an interview, or a ceremony (but wear good shoes if you have PE that day! Ha.) Ties, Dresses, Suits? Sure! Dress for respect! November 10
STUDENT RECOGNITION! We have so many students Reaching Out with Character and Kindness! For the month of October, dozens and dozens of students were noted going over and above without prompting from adults--and they were nominated to win our monthly #ROCK Award! Special congrats are in order to Julian James and Austin Allison, our October winners! (Pics below)
