Annual Veterans Day Program
International Children's Festival!
The transformation has begun! Our PTA International Children's Festival (ICF) Committee has been working behind the scenes to ready the school for the ICF Kick-Off event on Monday. Our ICF Week opening assembly will include musical performances representing a variety of cultures. ICF activities will be embedded throughout the week as all students take time to learn and share about traditions from all over the world. The ICF Family Night will include more performances, a culture fair, a delicious international menu provided by RRISD Food Services (adults $5 & children $3), and a Scholastic Book Fair in the library. Grab your passport and join us on Wednesday, November 15th beginning at 6:00 p.m. Remember to stop by the library and do some early holiday shopping at the book fair!

LEOPARDS Trait for November

A huge committee from RRISD worked for over a year to plan an amazing Comic Con event for kids and teens in Central Texas. It will be held on Saturday, December 2nd at Round Rock HS and it's totally FREE! There are sessions for educators, too! Events for elementary age are being held from 9 to noon, and teen events will be 9am to 5pm. Several big-name graphic novel authors/illustrators will be there speaking and signing, and it's going to be a phenomenal event.
