End-of-grade testing is starting for our 3rd-5th grade students this week. Please make sure that students are well-rested, eat a good breakfast, and are on time to school; the school day starts at 7:20am. We want to make sure that every child is set up for success!




Have you gotten your yearbook yet? Better hurry up - supplies are limited! Books can be purchased in the front office for $25 (cash only). There's an "All About Me" page, a signature page, and every student is in the yearbook more than once. And check out that amazing cover, drawn by 5th grader Leigh Lou!





Congratulations to Mrs. Nikki Braune, Mrs. Marcie Black, and Mrs. Jenna Hunter Coleman on being recognized as an educator of excellence at PCS Awards Banquet this week! Mrs. Braune was nominated as an Assistant Principal of the Year, Mrs. Black was voted Rocky Point's Teacher of the Year, and Ms. Hunter Coleman was selected as a Teacher of Promise. We are so proud that these phenomenal educators choose to call RPE home!
