The Falcon Flyer - Website Edition

April 10, 2026

Dear Rondout Families, Faculty and Friends,

It was a wonderful week at Rondout filled with celebration and connection across our school community.

We were delighted to welcome the families of the Class of 2035 at our Kindergarten Orientation on Tuesday evening. It was a pleasure meeting so many new families, as well as reconnecting with current Rondout families who will soon have another Falcon joining us. We look forward to partnering with you as your children begin their journey at Rondout.

We also celebrated an evening of pride and accomplishment as our 7th and 8th grade students were inducted into the Rondout Chapter of the National Junior Honor Society. These students exemplify scholarship, leadership, service, character, and citizenship, and we are incredibly proud of their achievements.

A special thank you to Mrs. Kerrigan for her dedication and leadership as the sponsor of our NJHS chapter. Her work in supporting and guiding our students is truly appreciated.

Looking ahead, we are excited to continue engaging our community with several upcoming events. Our next and final Fledglings Program for this year will take place on Wednesday, April 22nd from 10:30–11:15 a.m. We have some fun, hands-on activities planned for our preschool participants. The program is open to all families, and we kindly ask that you RSVP to the main office so we can ensure we have adequate materials prepared for everyone.

We are also looking forward to our PTSA-sponsored Special Seniors Day on the morning of April 24th. This special event provides a wonderful multi-generational experience for our students and their extended families. Please see additional details in today’s flyer. A special thank you to Greta Hanley for chairing this event—volunteers are still needed, and we welcome your support in making this a memorable experience for all.

As always, thank you for your continued partnership and support of our school community. The Rondout Way is reflected in the care, connection, and commitment we see each day in our students, staff, and families. We look forward to the busy and exciting weeks ahead as we continue learning and growing together.

Take care... Until next time...

Hello Rondout Families,

We are excited to announce our project for Public Works! Our Hefty ReNew program is back on track for this year! We are doing our best as a school to save our planet and you should too. Through the Hefty ReNew program we are doing our part in saving the Earth. Through this program we can recycle items and "garbage" that can't be recycled in normal recycling bags like foam, candy wrappers, cereal box liners, plastic straws and stirrers, bubble wrap, plastic food wrappers, foam peanuts, and so much more! There are so many small items that collectively make a big change in our world. We can't wait to get started! We are starting our recycling program on April 1^st and ending April 31st. Our celebration of Earth Day is so important that instead of just a day we decided to extend it to the whole month of April! You can find the boxes in the lunchroom. Remember that one piece of dirty garbage can ruin a whole bag of potentially savable material.

Sincerely , Public Works

Happy Birthday to all our students who are celebrating 

birthdays in April!
