Update: Seussical Kids - Monday, January 23. Departing JCE around 8:45am. Returning near 11.
Hello JCE Families,
Thank goodness for some normal winter weather. A little cold and a little snow is just fine in January! We have had several solid weeks of learning now that 2023 has started. We are excited to be going to the Middle School play next week to see Seussical Kids! Students are also hard at work with winter assessments so it will be great to see what growth they have made from the fall. Thanks for all of your support this year. We are very proud of the work students have been doing in their classrooms!

Yearbooks
We believe that all students should have as many memories and opportunities as possible here at ROCORI Public Schools. All ROCORI Elementary students will receive a yearbook. If you would like to help offset the cost of these yearbooks for the district and our PTCs, please consider purchasing a yearbook or donating.
Also, this year we are excited to announce that all three ROCORI elementary schools will be included in the same yearbook. We were able to make this change while keeping costs the same.
When yearbook orders are sent out, there will be an option to donate funds to the school and/or pay for yearbooks.
If you have already received an email from Lifetouch, we do apologize for any confusion.
Look for a link to ordering yearbooks in future Family Bulletins.
Good morning.
I am doing the Kids Heart Challenge, also known as Jump Rope For Heart, again this year. I sent home the information with kids this week. It is all online now, so no collecting of money and bringing it to school. If kids decide they don't want to participate, that is fine, and they do not have to take the paper.
Thank you for your flexibility.
Mr. Shaw
Title 1 news and Information
Title 1 Parents- Our first round of Title 1 services ended on Friday, January 20th. All students will be assessed to monitor academic progress through our Fast Reading and Math. Once the testing is complete, we will qualify students for our second round of Title 1 services. I will be in contact with you to let you know if your child qualifies or if they are no longer in need of Title 1 services. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out to me or your child’s teacher.
Thank you,
