Principal's Message....
I want to take this time to thank all of our RCES families for sharing your child(ren) with us. We appreciate the support that you provide our RCES family. I am truly honored and blessed to be a part of this school and this community. We've spent the first half of this year building a strong community of learners at RCES. Each day I witness great acts of kindness and compassion for others demonstrated by our staff and students. I can't wait to see what we can accomplish in 2019!
RCES Kids Care for December
Remember that we are collecting pennies/change that will be donated to Family Care. Family Care uses our donation to purchase coats, boots, food and presents for local families in need.
Our final count will be December 14th! Every penny counts!
Have a wonderful and relaxing holiday season!
Remember that we will be dismissing on December 21st at 2:30 (an hour early). School resumes again for students on January 8th!
Learning at RCES is OUT OF THIS WORLD!!!

Recess
Recess is an important part of our school day at RCES. During this time the students get fresh air, sunshine, and time to run and play with friends. We will be going outside as long as the "feels like" temperature is between 25-90 degrees and not raining/snowing.
Please make sure your child is dressed for this cooler weather.
Every Day at RCES Matters
From The Office:
When your child is absent, it is very important to call the office and provide the reason for the absence before 9:00 AM. If a student is not called in, the absence will be marked unexcused. After 7 absences students will be marked as unexcused unless a medical note is provided to the office for each day missed.
We understand that plans occasionally change for families throughout the day. If you need to change your child’s end of day routine, please notify the office NO LATER than 1:30.
