A note from the principal's desk...
Happy Halloween! What a great weekend. The weather is awesome. The colors are amazing. Michigan State v. Michigan and Halloween? The only thing that could make this better is a Lions win...but I'm not holding my breath.
Thank you for everyone who reached out with well wishes, positive vibes and prayers. Much appreciated. After lots of rest, some of it forced by my amazing circle of support, I should be back most of this week and resuming "normal" activities.
Lots of good information in here!
Also, if you are interested in being a Girls on the Run coach, please let me know ASAP. We are looking to get a team going in our building.
Have a great week!
Yours in Rocket Pride,
Scott

National Kidney Foundation || Lion's Club Tab Drive
Mrs. Peterman’s 5th grade class at RPI is doing a can tab drive to raise money for the National Kidney Foundation. We would like families and friends to collect pop can tabs(or any beverage can) and send them to put in containers at school. Just the TABS please, we don’t need the whole can. The drive will start on Monday, October 4th and it will go until Friday, December 10. It will help a lot of people. Look for containers in the RPI school. Every pound raises more money. Thank you for helping!! 😃
The Positivity Project
This week's character strength: Perspective
As "The Positivity Project" defines it, perspective is: You appreciate that people see things in different ways. You have the ability to see the world from multiple points of view.
While many of our 5th and 6th graders are still trying to figure out who they are and what they want to be, this is a valuable lesson for all of them. Stepping outside of ourselves to see the experiences of others from our own perspective, really helps us build empathy for each other.
This is a great 2 minute video about perspective: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QzWCrkvbJo0
