Notes from Principal Dra. Cardenas
Some thoughts for the starting school year
Every morning, announcements begin with the Song of the Week chosen by our Music Teacher, Mrs. Dietlin-Anderson. Each day, different facts about the singer are shared before beginning the pledges. Listen to the song with your child and ask him/her what they remember about the singer. If they don't remember, give them the task to remember one fact they hear the following day. Having daily conversations with your child about their school day can help nurture trust and social-emotional skills. For the month of September, in observance of Hispanic Heritage Month, Mrs. Dietlin-Anderson has chosen a Hispanic singer every week. Click above to listen!
From Principal, Dra. Cárdenas
Esteemed RHE Community,
We have completed our BOY testing for the first three weeks. The students' results will be shared with parents through teacher-parent conferences at the end of the 1st Six Weeks. This week also marked the end of the first three weeks of instruction. Progress reports will be going out on Wednesday and we invite our RHE parents to reach out to their student's teacher with any questions.
Parents, a great way to help your child is to reinforce the importance of academics by ensuring they complete their homework at home. This Monday through Thursday routine helps their brain continue to practice daily concepts, it gives them the opportunity to see that you are invested in their academic progress, and it gives your child another opportunity for corrective feedback from the teacher the following day. All homework is of material that has been covered in class. Students may sometimes forget exactly how to complete a problem. Assist them as best you can, and as long as they attempt it, teachers will review the homework daily to clear up any misconceptions.
This week, 475 students enjoyed the cotton candy treat for being here every day the first two weeks. Thank you parents for bringing them to us. As you'll see below, our attendance for the week was 96%. WooHoo!! Our goal is to stay at a minimum of 96%. Thank you parents for your support!
We finished off the week with the Pep Rally at the High School where our students enjoyed cheering for and with our High School Teams! The energy in the gym was like no other. We thank the RHHS P-Tech staff for inviting our RHE Bobcats for a wonderful unforgettable experience.
I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend! We'll see you back on Monday, bright and early at school before 8:00am, ready to kick-off Week 3!
At Your Service,
Dra. Betty A. Cárdenas
