The River Hawk
Rio Norte News - September 30, 2022
A Note From the Principal
We went full out this week on our "You Matter" campaign, impressing upon students just how important they are in our world! We want students to recognize that everyone has bad days or times in their life when the struggles seem on-going, but each of us MATTER and are here for a reason. Take a look at Thursday's RioTV episode below for our staff shout-outs to our River Hawks!
Last week's "Name that Movie Theme Song" house activity was so popular that students and staff wanted to play it again! Advisory groups had so much fun and this week's winner was BLUE House! Thank you to all of our families who supported the Panda Express fundraiser and had their student join PTSA. The winning house will be announced soon!
Our school calendar (below in important dates) has been updated to reflect that the last day of school on June 1st is a minimum day. You can click the picture below to see the full calendar and you can also CLICK HERE to download it. This Thursday evening, we have our PTSA General Association meeting in the Rio Norte MPR at 5:30 p.m. Our SRO, Deputy Gonzales, will be there to meet parents, so please come join us!
8th grade families, don't forget that this coming Wednesday is the last day for students to turn in money and order forms for the 8th grade Rio Hoodies. Late orders cannot be accepted and there will not be extras left over as names of this years' 8th graders are on the hoodie. See details below.
Finally, while we hope everyone enjoys the Fall Break day off on Monday, please remember that unlike our feeder elementary schools, Monday, October 3rd is the only day we have off in the Hart District. We will see our River Hawks back on Tuesday the 4th!
Sincerely,
Mrs. Bennett
