Spring Break - March 12-16
From the Principal
We are all looking forward to taking a little break called Spring Break! But there is plenty of learning and fun to be had this week at Riojas Elementary School!
Spring picture orders went home. Return those orders as soon as possible.
Art to Remember raises money for our Art program at Riojas. If you received one of these cute flyers in your K-2 child's backpack, orders are due by this Friday.
Ask your 5th grader about the "Escape Room" activity this week!
I hope to see you at school sometime soon,
Christi
This Friday is Field Day - Mar 9!
Field Day is very early this year Friday, March 9th and we still need more volunteers! If you can help (or if you know of an adult that can help) please go to our Sign Up Genius and sign up.
There are opportunities to help before, during and after Field Day! Grab a friend and sign up!

Tell Your Neighbors! 2018-19 Kindergarten Registration - May 3rd@Riojas
Incoming Kindergarten - Spanish Immersion 2018-19
Pflugerville ISD and Riojas Elementary offer a Spanish Immersion program for students starting in Kindergarten for the 2018-19 school year. Immersion programs “immerse” native English speakers in Spanish beginning in kindergarten. Spanish language learners are provided all the state standard curriculum coupled with learning the Spanish language and cultural background.
A mandatory Spanish Immersion parent information session will take place April 12 at 5:30 pm at Riojas Elementary for those who are interested in the program.
Should more families express interest in the program than space allows, a lottery system will be utilized to determine the final selection of kindergarten candidates. Younger siblings of currently enrolled Spanish Immersion students will be given priority pending available space. Parents interested in enrolling siblings of current program enrollees are required to attend the mandatory meetings.
