Reagan Insider
April 5, 2024
Principal Message
Ray Community,
We have had a wonderful week at Rayland. There is so much learning happening on campus. In Kindergarten students worked on persuasive letters, with one class asking for a pet rabbit. I loved seeing the thought that went into trying to persuade administration to get a pet rabbit for their classroom.
On Wednesday we welcomed a district community member as our Principal for a Day, through the LISD community leadership program. Our principal for a day witnessed our No Place for Hate campus wide chant and walked through several classrooms with me. It was an honor hosting her.
As we near the solar eclipe on Monday, please make sure you reviewed our April 8th Solar Eclipse special edition insider. You may find all the information at the following link: https://www.smore.com/n/30smp-april-8th-solar-eclipse
Wishing you all a restful weekend,
Alison Pennington
Principal
