Ray Community,
We are wishing you the most relaxing Spring Break. We hope you all enjoy time with your family and friends over the next week. Please remember students are off from March 11th through March 18th. March 18th is a professional learning day for staff.
As we near April 8th I wanted to let families know that we will have a full day of learning around the upcoming solar eclipse for our students. We are excited to announce that PTA has purchased solar eclipse glasses for all of our students. The week prior to the solar eclipse parents will receive a form asking for permission for your child to participate in viewing the eclipse. We have planned activities and times to take students outside to view the eclipse with their teachers. The district has provided a website for families around the eclipse, you may find that link here.
The end of the semester is quickly approaching and it is time for us to review staffing allocations for next school year. In order to make sure we have assigned the appropriate number of staff to each grade level we are asking that you fill out our Reagan verification form. This form allows us to see how many students will be returning to Reagan next school year. The form also allows us to advocate for any potential additional staffing needs we may encounter due to the student enrollment at each grade level.
Have a wonderful Spring Break!

LISD ART SHOW
Every elementary teacher in LISD may display art on only 2 tables and 4 art panels. We have so many amazing artists and Mrs. St.John wishes she could fit every artist's work in her car and bring it to the show but she is limited to about 75+ works of art!
Come out and see all the amazing art across the district. It is come and go! It will take longer to find a parking spot but do not be discouraged, be strong and come ahead! It will be wonderful!
