Technology is Everywhere!
Each day most of our students have access to computers, iPads or smart phones. It's extremely important to monitor what our children are doing while on technology at school and home. Check in often to see what web sites are being utilized. Below are some great educational sites you might want to consider allowing for use at home.
Assistant Principal Week
This week we recognize Mrs. Owen's for all she does as our assistant principal at Richmond Drive. Mrs. Owens is always visiting classes and helping our students grow. We are blessed to have her as a part of the Richmond Drive family.
National Librarian Day
Thursday, we celebrated Mrs. Martee Patton and all she does for Richmond Drive in our media center. Mrs. Patton joined us in January. She has taught the children how to check out books and sponsored our Battle of the Books team just to name a few great things she has done. Thank you for all you do, Mrs. Patton. We love you!!
Second Grade Holds Court
Second graders in Ms. Stallings' class held court to decide who was guilty, the pigs or the wolf in The Three Little Pigs stories. Each student had to select a side and defend them by writing a persuasive paper. The judge the Honorable Mrs. Pearson listened to all students present their information. With no reasonable doubt it was decided the pigs won.
Second graders in Mrs. Rao's class also held court. The honorable Mr. Black held court in this class. Once again, the pigs won the case.
Field Day
Field Day is Friday, May 24th.
We will need lots of volunteers.
Please be on the lookout for a sign up to come home.
