Adopt a Garden/Outdoor Classroom
The RCES rock garden looks welcoming and refreshed thanks to the Lee family's (Emerson - K) support of materials and labor. Please look for Principal Reeves' special announcement on future plans for the space to support the RCES students.
Our very own Bar T Director Tom helped transplant some native perennials during the warm spell last week to bloom in the spring. Thank you, Tom!
RCES middle school alumni will be presenting at the November 15 PTA meeting on their Girl Scout Silver Award project for the courtyard. It's going to be so exciting - please come and hear all about it.
Families or groups that would like to help with financial donations or labor for the outdoor classroom courtyard please contact Ms. Rosie, LHA/Para at derosero@mcpsmd.org
