Notes from Principal Dra. Cardenas
Some thoughts for the starting school year
Every morning, announcements begin with the Song of the Week chosen by our Music Teacher, Mrs. Dietlin-Anderson. Each day, different facts about the singer are shared before beginning the pledges. Listen to the song with your child and ask him/her what they remember about the singer. If they don't remember, give them the task to remember one fact they hear the following day. Having daily conversations with your child about their school day can help nurture trust and social-emotional skills.
From Principal, Dra. Cárdenas
Esteemed RHE Community,
This week, we closed the First Six Weeks. Our students took End of Unit Assessments to demonstrate their understanding of the skills taught up until now. Teachers are using that data to reteach and review the skills that students' need.
From PK-4th Grade, our teachers had a planning day to prepare instructional plans and materials for the 2nd Six Weeks. During this planning day, teachers worked together to share ideas and strategies that will help students understand grade level concepts.
This coming week our first Report Card will be going home. Your child's teacher will reach out to you, if they haven't done so already, to schedule a teacher-parent academic conference. Please work with your child's teacher for a time that works for you. These conferences are mandatory to stay informed with your child's progress and their plan for the school year.
I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend! We'll see you back on Monday, bright and early at school before 8:00am.
At Your Service,
Dra. Betty A. Cárdenas
