R-PTLE Weekly Family Communication
Week of March 11th, 2024 (#27)
March Forward!
Dear Families,
Time for the sparks to fly! The time of year when the hard work and the focused learning start to pay off. Keep grinding with us! The teaching and learning going on isn't easy. The changing of the weather provides challenges. Let's keep ourselves locked into the learning experiences at school to maximize every minute we can.
A Friendly reminder for the time change - Spring Ahead!
Please Help!
Huge Day tomorrow!
Kindergarten Round-Up is March 11th! PLEASE, get the word out there so all of those wanting to start KG next year can show up.

March's Monthly Theme is Courage!
What is Courage?
Courage is the ability and strength to face something that may be difficult or challenging. Courage is not the absence of fear, but rather perseverance in the presence of fear and the willingness to stand up for what is right or to try something new even though it may be uncomfortable or uncertain.
Total Trek Quest
The link below will give a full explanation. For this paragraph, this program is basically the parallel of Girls On The Run for our Boys. All 3rd and 4th grade Boys are eligible for this program. All we need are Boys to sign up and two Volunteer Coaches for this program to thrive.
Please see this link for more information.
