RCE Family Update
10.3.21 - #RCEfamily
October!!
The last update focused on our Covid numbers and procedures. Since the late August/early September peak, positive cases have dropped by 88%. While we still have positives, you are doing a great job keeping your children at home and having them tested when they don't feel well. Please continue to be safe outside of school!
Water Bottles:
We encourage students to bring a water bottle with them each day. We have several water bottle fillers around the school. If your child would like a water bottle, the National Guard has donated some, and they're in Mr. Culpepper's office.
Headphones/Earbuds:
These are an essential school supply for students as they work and learn on their Chromebooks. We have some available at school, but not nearly enough for everyone. Wired earbuds can be purchased for less than $10, and we encourage students to bring a pair from home.
School Starts @ 8:30am:
If you don't make it by 8:30am, please pull around to the front office to sign in.
Christmas Help:
If you are interested in sponsoring a student for Christmas or if you need assistance, please contact our Guidance office at (864) 397-4200.
PSAT:
The PSAT will be given to 8th grade students who have signed up and paid, on Wednesday, 10/13. Students will need to bring a calculator and a #2 pencil.
Please scroll down for other important dates and information. If you need anything at all, please don't hesitate to call (864) 397-4200 or e-mail me anytime!
