Ross Round Up
Engage. Empower. Educate. Every Day.
October 14, 2022
Thursday was a special day at Ross with the Jog-a-Thon. The kids had so much fun! Check out the video from our Ross Elementary School YouTube channel.
Big thanks to Cassandra Hammel, a super parent that organized it, and to all our awesome parent volunteers. We love the contributions our parents make on campus--we could not do this without you.
Next week, students will be setting goals in class on Compassion, our October Ross Value. We're excited to see how they show their Compassion to others all month. They showed Compassion this week by making posters to thank our cafeteria ladies for all the hard work they do. Next week, they'll be thanking bus drivers.
With love,
Principal Tripp
Parent-Teacher Conferences Next Week
All three days are early release days at 1:30 so that we can start conferences at 2:00 each day.
Our goal is to meet with every family and share how your students are doing and what we're doing with our AVID program at Ross that's getting us such great results.
Download the Kuna School District app prior to conferences so that we can get you set up on Blackboard Reach, our new school-wide communication tool!
Communication
- Our Blackboard Reach pilot will be starting soon after Parent-Teacher Conferences. Watch for communication from Blackboard about this and download the app or, if you don't have a cell phone, visit reach.blackboard.com.
- Social Media: Follow us on Facebook @RossElementaryKuna
- YouTube: Follow us at our new YouTube channel for weekly videos featuring students and staff around campus!
- Ross Website: Check out the website for updated information, events, and news of kids at Ross Elementary
