Dear Rondout Families, Faculty and Friends,
This week brought a wonderful close to our schoolwide Kids Heart Challenge activities. Students and staff enjoyed a lively culminating celebration that included relays, a friendly faculty basketball challenge, and plenty of enthusiastic cheering from our students. It was a terrific way to celebrate teamwork, healthy activity, and school spirit.
A special thank you to Mr. Williams for organizing the many events that made the challenge so much fun for everyone. We also extend our appreciation to all of the students and families who participated over the past several weeks and helped make this program such a success.
Today’s high winds certainly kept us on our toes! For everyone’s safety, student activities were moved indoors. While the wind caused a little excitement around campus, we were fortunate that the impact was minimal. A small section of the wooden fence on the north end of our property was knocked down, and a few shingles were blown off the chicken coop. Thankfully, everything is repairable, and we are grateful that no one was injured and the rest of our campus weathered the storm well.
Looking ahead, we expect to see quite a bit of green around school on Tuesday as students and staff celebrate St. Patrick’s Day. Later in the week, we will officially welcome spring on Friday, March 20 at 9:46 a.m. — a moment we are all ready to celebrate after a long winter.
Next Friday will also bring one of Rondout’s most treasured traditions — the annual Staff vs. Student Volleyball Game, where our 7th and 8th grade students take on the faculty in a friendly but spirited competition before we head into spring break. It is always a highlight of the year and a wonderful way for our school community to come together.
Wishing everyone a wonderful weekend and a great week ahead.
Take care... Until next time...
Dr. Jenny Wojcik
