FIFTH GRADE PARENT NIGHT
at Redmond Middle School
Tuesday, January 14
Dear Families of Future RMS Grizzlies,
On Tuesday, January 14th, Redmond Middle School will be hosting a family night for the families of all current 5th graders who will be attending RMS next year. This event starts at 6:30pm. This will be a great chance to see and tour Redmond Middle, meet the administration and counseling staff, and have questions answered. This evening is geared toward parents/guardians only. There will also be Spanish interpreters present at this event.
Our 5th grade students will be visiting Redmond Middle this spring for an orientation activity. The student leadership at RMS puts together a wonderful program that includes student led tours, an opportunity for 5th graders to ask RMS students questions, and fun games and trivia. They will be able to meet the administration, counselors, and 6th grade teachers. More information will come later for this event.
We look forward to meeting you on January 14th.
Thank you!

USED BOOK DONATIONS
Hello Beagle Families,
Got some old, gently used books that you don't need? Rockwell Library is actively accepting donations for our annual Used Book Sale to be held in May, in conjunction with the Ice Cream Social. This event is always a big hit and proceeds go to buy new books for the library.
If you would like to donate, please bring your books (in boxes or bags) to the office.
Thanks for your support of our school library!

WSPTA ESSAY CONTEST
This statewide essay contest explores the important and varied influencers in the lives and education of children - from the children's perspective. Every day children are exposed to a variety of people and each one has an opportunity to influence the path a child decides to take. Whether it is someone that sparks an interest in a new topic, helps them work through a problem, shapes the kind of person they want to become by modeling behavior, simply listens to them, or any number of other actions, this is the platform for students to share their appreciation.
The application deadline is March 1.
You can learn more about the contest
here.
