Dear Rondout Families, Faculty and Friends,
Welcome back, and Happy New Year! I hope the winter break and holiday season provided time for rest, reflection, and joyful moments with family and friends. As we return to school, it has been wonderful to see our students’ smiling faces and to feel the renewed energy throughout the building.
We have an exciting month ahead and would like to share several upcoming events for your calendar:
