Roebling Elementary Entrance Reopening:
Despite, COVID-19 and various weather restrictions, we are proud to celebrate the reopening of the newly reconstructed Roebling Elementary School entrance. After several months of renovations, this 107-year-old school building, which was originally built in 1914, was renovated in a continuing effort to address safety and health concerns throughout the Florence Twp. School District. Please join us on the virtual tour of this momentous event!
#RoeblingReads
Roebling Elementary School is hosting a Read-a-thon and wants YOU to get involved! Read-a-thons actually get your child excited about reading and it gives friends and family the opportunity to encourage your child to read even more. All donations will be put towards summer reading books for all students! The goal is for each student to self-select 5 or more books for summer reading. Read-a-thons are a great tool to help in the development of stronger reading skills. Additionally, it doesn't take much of your time, gives children a reason to read, and helps support summer reading!
We hope EVERYONE participates in our upcoming #RoeblingReads grades PreK-3 event! The school-wide program started Thursday, April 29th 2021 however its not too late to sign up! Contact your child's teacher for more information!
