My College Monday - November 5th
University Interscholastic League
Rockwall Independent School District is once again excited to announce that our University Interscholastic League (UIL) will hold a District Meet at the elementary level. Our meet is scheduled for. Saturday, March 2, 2019 at Rockwall Heath High School. This year’s meet will include competitions for second through sixth grade. The events are as follows:
● Story Telling – second and third grade
● Ready Writing – third through sixth grade
● Number Sense – fourth through sixth grade
● Oral Reading – fourth through sixth grade
● Maps, Graphs and Charts – fifth and sixth grade
● Spelling – third through sixth
● Music Memory—second through sixth
● Chess – second through sixth
Students may choose to participate in one of the eight offered events. However, a new exception has been made to UIL. Ready Writing competition is implemented and completed prior to the district UIL meet on the designated Saturday each year. Therefore, your child is welcome to participate in Ready Writing and one other event if they make the tryouts. All children who are interested will be given an opportunity to try out after attending practice sessions for the contest. The highest scores in each event for each grade level or grade level cluster will be able to compete in the District Meet on March 2nd. One alternate will also be chosen.
If your child is interested in participating in one of the events, please complete the form below, and return it to his/her school.
Yearbook Information
We're really excited about this year's Amanda Rochell School yearbook. Why? Because you can add your own photos and memories to your personalized copy. All you have to do is create a free account with TreeRing.
TreeRing is a yearbook publisher that is focused on helping students and parents preserve their memories as much as it's focused on helping schools preserve their history. So, the yearbooks have a more personal touch.
Your book includes two, free pages for you to personalize with your own photos and memories. The personal pages are totally optional, so if you just want the more traditional yearbook, that's okay, too.
Whichever you choose, you can click here to purchase a yearbook for $20.61.
If you are going to use the personal pages, please have them done and buy your copy of the yearbook by March 27, 2019.
