October 29, 2021

Dear Rondout Families, Faculty, and Friends,

We had a wonderfully exciting week at Rondout that ended with yesterday’s Harvest Festival and today’s Halloween festivities. The Harvest festival provided a variety of fun learning activities from learning about bats to making s’mores after a nature walk. We had our own Rondout pumpkin patch and enjoyed a variety of art activities. The Harvest Festival is one of our new traditions that grew out of our response to COVID. We look forward to making this an annual event.

Our next event is our Veteran’s Day program. We are still looking for Veteran’s who would like to join us for a thoughtful commemorative event. The program will be from 10:30 to 11:00 a.m. on Thursday November 11, 2021. Please email me if you are interested in joining us. Thanks to Ron Craig, Luke and Adam Wagliardo’s grandfather who was the first to respond to our request. Mr. Craig has joined us for our in-person events for a number of year. We thank him for volunteering to join us again this year via Zoom

Wishing you and your families a great weekend. Be safe, have fun and if you are celebrating Halloween… ENJOY!!!

Take care…until next time…

Dr. Jenny Wojcik

Special Lunch Notice

for

Thursday, November 4, 2021

Due to the size of the baked potatoes, Upper School students will be limited to one large potato in their order. They may double up on the sides and beverages at no extra cost tomorrow. Our oven space is already stretched due to the size of the potatoes.

K-5 potatoes will be sized accordingly to age/appetite.

(We will be offering the Rondout food cart with snacks available to students who order hot lunch and need a little extra in place of the salad bar.)
