Good afternoon Rocky Point Families,

 

Thank you for your participation in the fun of celebrating the 100th day of school as well as CTE Spirit Week.  Much appreciation also for showering our bus drivers with love during LOVE the Bus Week.

 

This week on Thursday, February 23, students will be taking spring class pictures.  We are asking for these pictures to be purchased in advance.

 

On Friday, February 24th, we are inviting all families for a Black History Assembly led by our 4th and 5th grade students at 12:30 with all grade levels performing a musical performance.  Following the assembly, families will be led on a gallery walk in honor and in memory of historical black figures.

 

Read Across America Week is February 27th through March 3rd.  Our goal is to have at least one guest reader in each classroom each day!  Please reach out to your child’s teacher if you would like to volunteer to come read to the class one day during the week of February 27th.  I will share our Read Across America Theme days in next weekend’s update.

 

Kindergarten registration will begin on Wednesday, March 1st!  If you have a child that will turn 5 years old prior to August 31, 2023, please plan to register them for Kindergarten.  You may do so online through Scribbles or if you would like assistance, you may contact our school data manager, Mrs. Jan Richardson, after Wednesday, March 1st.  Please let us know if you have any questions!

As we highlight Black History month in the month of February, our quote for the week:  “In recognizing the humanity of our fellow beings, we pay ourselves the highest tribute.” by Thurgood Marshall.  Have a great week and we hope to see many of you on Friday afternoon for our Black History Assembly!
