Registration
Here we go again! The counselors are beginning the registration process with their students, so please be patient with them while they get everything in order.
We do have some informational meetings set up for students and parents.
Next Tuesday, the 5th graders will be visiting Rice in the morning, teachers will be sending out information in regards to students who may be missing classes.
Next Tuesday night the 5th grade parents will be coming to Rice to hear about the options that will be available for their children.
Next Wednesday night our 6th grade parents will be coming to Rice to hear about the options for their children as they transition to 7th grade.
The counselors will be sending out further information in regards to the upcoming 8th grade academic conferences.
Grades
I appreciate everyone's efforts to allow students to retake assessments for full credit. This has helped many of our students and they are reaping the benefits of this opportunity. Not everyone learns at the same pace, but everyone can learn if given the chance.
Also, please make sure you are using Wednesday School and Friday Night Lights to help your students stay updated on grades.
1st Annual Souper Bowl
If you would like to bring a favorite soup, please sign up here. Even if you don't have a favorite food, you can still bring a side item and enjoy the soups provided.
This is a potluck of sorts for everyone to participate and provide.

Rice's Bragging and Reflection Form
There are four "announcements" placed in the classroom which is to be used to brag on yourself, a teacher, or even a student. If you include something about someone, please let them know, so they can see the information. Something to try out as far as giving props and recognition to those who deserve it. The class code is: k37hjt
