RCES Kids Care -Marker in May
We are working together with Crayola this month on a recycling project called Crayola Colorcycle! Crayola and schools across North America are banding together to help kids understand the importance of their role in protecting the environment. Through this initiative, students in K-12 schools across the continental United States and parts of Canada can collect and repurpose used markers. Click here for more information.
Teacher Appreciation Week May 6th-10th
FORCES is sponsoring Teacher Appreciation Week. They are asking each grade level to send in items by May 3rd. The items collected will be for the entire teaching staff at RCES. Please see their Facebook page for more information. FORCES is also looking for parent volunteers to assist with our Book Fair and Field Day Activities. Please contact Amy Bova at amb0701psb@att.net, if you would like to help with these events.

Recess
Recess is an important part of our school day at RCES. During this time the students get fresh air, sunshine, and time to run and play with friends. We will be going outside as long as the "feels like" temperature is between 25-90 degrees and not raining/snowing.
Please make sure your child is dressed for unpredictable weather.
All Day Every Day at RCES
From The Office:
When your child is absent, it is very important to call the office and provide the reason for the absence before 9:00 AM. If a student is not called in, the absence will be marked unexcused. After 7 absences students will be marked as unexcused unless a medical note is provided to the office for each day missed. Our fax number is 815-458-4039.
We understand that plans occasionally change for families throughout the day. If you need to change your child’s end of day routine, please notify the office NO LATER than 1:30.
