Hello RES families!
What a fabulous evening Thursday turned out to be! Did you grab a passport and visit all the countries? Did you sample any foods? We learned so much! What an amazing display everyone put on! How about all the art our creative students made? So much talent! And let us not forget the Books!!!! All week long, Kim Topf was dedicating her time working the Book Fair, raising money for our school. A huge THANK YOU is in order to Kim Topf for organizing the Book Fair, Kelly Brady and Nikki Penoza for organizing the Art Show, and Ada Emuwa for organizing the Culture Show. And of course, the many volunteers who helped bring it all together. It takes a village! We appreciate everyone taking time out of their busy schedules and helping us out.
PTO MEETING: Our next PTO Meeting is on Tuesday, April 2, 7:00 p.m. at room 104. Only 2 more meetings remaining for this school year! Come check it out. Speaking of PTO, we are seeking volunteers to chair events next year. If you would like to become more involved, please contact Rebecca Stanion at rebeccas1222@yahoo.com for more information.
HOPPERVILLE BOOKSTORE: This Wednesday, April 3, is Hopperville Bookstore day!! Your children will be able to shop for new books from 8:45am to 9:00am in the Reidenbaugh cafeteria. All items cost .25-.50 cents. Children may purchase items with money or a donation coupon. Remember that for every 4 items donated, your child earns 1 coupon for 1 FREE paperback book.
2nd GRADE BOOKS FOR BREAKFAST: On April 5, from 8:00 to 8:45am, 2nd graders have Books for Breakfast. Come have breakfast and read with your student. It's one adult per child, please.
MINI-THON: Only 1 more week to go! Please make sure you have your calendars marked for Friday, April 5th, from 5:00pm-8:00pm. It will be plenty of fun for the whole family! The night will be filled with games, arts & crafts and dancing! Come hungry, as food vendors will donate a portion of their sales. You will want to stay till the end, to watch the kids hoist the numbers for the big REVEAL! Of course, this event cannot happen on its own. We need volunteers to make this night a success! We ask that you consider helping out, there are plenty of 30 minute time slots. Check out the sign up genius here: https://www.signupgenius.com/go/10c0d49abae22a31-minithon
