Safety Patrol - Mike McCain

On Friday, June 2nd the Safety Patrol visited the Spokane Police Academy and was treated with a tour of the Eastside Basic Law Enforcement Academy (BLEA). They watched a presentation from K-9 handler Officer Todd Belitz and got to meet his partner "Nuke". We also got a little range time in on the VirTra a virtual target practice simulator. It was a great experience for our students. They got to see what it takes to be a police officer, and a positive relationship-building experience for our students as well. A big Thank You to Sgt. Rogan, Officer Kerns, Officer Belitz, and of course Nuke.

Field Day 2023

Monday June 12th

8:20-11:00 AM

Parents- This year’s field day will be full of lots of activities for your child to have fun with their classmates and friends as we celebrate the end of the school year.

A few things to keep in mind:

We will be outside all morning, so please apply sunscreen on your child before they leave in the morning. Students can wear hats throughout the day as well.
A snow cone station is part of the day again. Snow Cones will be available for $3 and are a fundraiser for our high school girls’ volleyball team.
There are two stations that involve water. If you are concerned about the water, please send an extra shirt or let your child’s teacher know and we can have them sit out of that station.
The day will be very active. Please remind your child to dress appropriately for the day’s activities. Tennis shoes are encouraged.

Tuesday, June 13th, Reardan Middle School will host the elementary fun run. There will be two courses this year. Grades K-3 will run to the edge of town and back. Grades 4-6 will run to the baseball fields and back for their course. If you have not already, please return the waiver form to your child's teacher.

Middle School Update

Reardan Weekly Middle School Update June 7, 2023

We had a fantastic week with students wrapping up end of the year projects. On Tuesday the 8th grade students hosted the elementary grades in Science Day. They created five different science teaching stations and our elementary students participated in hands on activities and fun for all. Last week John Schulz convinced Ms. Vesneske that he could do a “science lab” making waffles for his class. We can get behind anything when it’s “For Science!”

As we count down to the end of the school year, we are sending out this schedule of events so that our parents and students can plan for each day. Parent Permission slips for our MS students to go off campus and assist with the Elementary Fun Run are going home today and must be returned by Tuesday morning in order for students to participate in this fun event. Thank you for sharing your amazing students with us this year. It has been a year of learning, growing, and having fun together.

Remember, Monday June 12th is a REGULAR start time–please be at your bus stops at the regular time, not the late start time. Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday are all half days. Breakfast and lunch will be served all three days next week.

Wax Museum - Jackie Whitfield, NBCT

5th grade students have been working hard on a research project which culminated with a living Wax Museum. The students chose a historical figure who has made a positive contribution to society, then conducted research, and wrote a biography. They finally presented their research as if they were in fact the person they spent so much time researching.
