Happy 100th Day of School! We recognize this milestone and honor a year of hard work, perseverance and progress. Congrats to families, staff and especially our awesome students for their tremendous efforts thus far. This week's Spirit Week is a fun way to celebrate a job well done! Check out our flier to see all the great days planned by wonderful volunteer Maria Woodward and super staff partner Mimi Weiss. Tag us in your pictures on Instagram @resctpta and on Facebook @RESPTA.
Additionally, at this benchmark, parents will be receiving mid-year report cards. If this is your first time receiving one, your child's teacher(s) writes personal notes on the final page that you don't want to miss! Although this is not an official parent/teacher conference week, don't hesitate to reach out to your teacher with any questions or concerns. This year, all report cards will be available to view online through PowerSchool. Questions about how to access? Our wonderful RES Office Staff and Administration are here to help.
Lastly, please join the RES PTA on Friday, February 25 from 3:30-5pm in the RES Kindergarten parking lot/ playground to meet and welcome our new Principal, Melissa Labrosciano, to RES. We hope you can join us for a free coffee/ hot drink and snacks for the kids!
Cheers,
Meredith + Angela
