Hello, RSPA Families!


It’s hard to believe we have already celebrated 100 days of school—and what an exciting milestone it has been! Our scholars have been learning, growing, and making memories every step of the way.


Our second round of Student-Led Conferences (SLEDs) will take place on Friday, February 20th. This is a wonderful opportunity for students to share their learning and progress across all content areas. Please be on the lookout for a ParentSquare link from your child’s teacher to reserve your time.


Our Dazzling Dolls will host the 3rd Annual Family Sweetheart Ball on February...

Your Child’s Future Starts With Attendance



Coming to school is about more than funding; it’s about your scholar’s growth and success. Each day of instruction builds on the one before it. Missing school, even arriving late, places your child at an immediate disadvantage.


This year alone, low attendance has cost our school over $75,000 in funding, limiting resources that directly support your child’s education. We need your partnership to turn this around.


Make attendance a priority. Bring your child to school, on time, every day, so they can succeed today and in the years ahead.

Perfect Attendance Splash Day Party


Scholars with perfect attendance in the month of February will enjoy our Skate Jam on March 6th!


Keep it up, and scholars who missed only three days of school or less from February 2nd to May 1st will participate in the 2nd Annual Splash Day Party!


Remember, students who miss 10 or more school days may receive an attendance behavior contract and could be subject to compulsory attendance laws. Also, 3 tardies are equivalent to one absence.


To view your scholar's attendance or grades, log in to your Parent Portal.
