The Falcon Flyer - Website Edition

April 10, 2023

Dear Rondout Families, Faculty and Friends,

Happy Monday...We hope you enjoyed the beautiful weekend weather. Sending warmest wishes to all our families who celebrated Easter this weekend, who are continuing celebrating Passover this week and who are celebrating Ramadan this month. While each addresses a particular cultural and religious perspective, each brings the opportunity for families to come together and honor their beliefs and traditions. To that end we say… Happy Easter…Happy Passover (Chag Sameach)… Happy Ramadan (Ramadan Mubarek)…

This week’s flyer brings some key information related to registration for the upcoming school year. The link to the on-line form is embedded below. Paper forms for the families who requested them will be sent home with the youngest child in the family today. Just a reminder that 8^th graders do not need to register with Rondout but will be taking care of registration through the high school. The PTSA is once again offering parents the opportunity to purchase school supplies through the School Kidz Program. Participation in this program is voluntary and supports the PTSA.

Just a reminder about the communication I sent last week about our crisis plans. On Wednesday April 19, 2023, we will provide a general overview of our crisis readiness protocols starting at 7:00 p.m.at Rondout. This meeting will replace the zoom parent coffee scheduled for that evening. Ms. Davis and I will share a short presentation followed by a time for questions. Please note that we may not be able to address all questions with specific details. Only Rondout parents and guardians are invited to join us for the presentation.

Please feel free to reach out with any questions. We appreciate your continued support and engagement as we work together to keep our community safe.

Until next time... Take care...

Dr. Jenny Wojcik

Superintendent

Ms. Elizabeth Davis
