Dear Rondout Families, Faculty and Friends,
As we head into the home stretch of the school year with just two weeks remaining, our days continue to be filled with meaningful learning experiences, special activities, field trips, celebrations, and cherished traditions. It is a joyful and busy time at Rondout as we wrap up another memorable year together.
Next week will be especially full of important events and celebrations. On Tuesday evening, the Board of Education will recognize teacher and staff employment anniversaries during the regular May Board Meeting beginning at 7:00 p.m. We are grateful for the dedication, commitment, and years of service that so many staff members have given to the Rondout community.
Wednesday brings several special graduation traditions as we celebrate the Class of 2026. Graduation activities will begin with the annual Clap Out of the graduates by their K-7 peers at 10:00 a.m. following the morning's graduation practice. Later in the day, our Parade of Graduates will take place at 5:00 p.m., followed by the Graduation Ceremony at 7:30 p.m. We are so proud of our graduates and look forward to honoring their accomplishments and celebrating this important milestone with families, staff, and friends. Congratulatory yard signs have been delivered, and families should also watch for a special graduate celebration flyer featuring staff tributes that will be shared later this evening.
Friday will be a half-day for students as staff members begin wrapping up reports, records, classroom planning, and preparations for both the final days of school and the upcoming school year. At 3:00 p.m., the PTSA will host a special gathering honoring our retiree, Mrs. Julie Coronelli, along with the many volunteers who have generously supported Rondout throughout the year. We are deeply appreciative of the time, care, and dedication that our volunteers and staff bring to our school community each and every day.
As we move through these final weeks, we appreciate your assistance with several important end-of-year tasks. Please remember to:
- Send in permission slips for next week’s K–5 field trips to Ryerson Conservation Area
- Complete registration forms for the 2026–2027 school year
- Return all library books so we can work toward another outstanding return rate
- Sign up to volunteer for Circus Day on June 1st
Thank you for your continued partnership and support as we finish the school year strong. We are looking forward to an exciting and memorable conclusion to a wonderful year at Rondout!
Take care... Until next time...
