Message from the Principal
It was such a pleasure to see such a great turn out at our first PTO meeting for the school year. Everybody was so nice, engaging, and ready to help out their school community any way they can.
Even though, many of the PTO Board and Committee positions have been filled, we still have a few spots available: Membership Chair, Bike Rodeo, Community Partners and Nominating Committee. If you are interested in any of these spots, please contact the PTO at RidePTO@gmail.com.
The Ride Tee Shirts are another hot topic. The window to purchase shirts closes on August 25th. Don’t miss out on this opportunity to buy a Ride Shirt. Once the kids start wearing them, everyone is going to want one. We also ask for the children to wear them on Field Trip Days and every Friday for Spirit Day. If you purchase a Ride Cap, all students and teachers can wear them on Fridays as well. Ride Spirit Wear or see the QR Code below.
Please read Back to School Basics website below. It has everything you need to know to start the new school year.
You will also find a couple of after school activities posted below. Please register with the company if you would like for your child to participate during the first semester. I believe we still have tennis and golf coming as well.
We hope you have a wonderful weekend. Get lot's of rest.
