4th/5th Grade 

Parent Info Session


Rescheduled:

Tuesday, Jan 23 7:00pm

Mrs. Thome's room

In light of school closures today, we will reschedule our in-person Parent Meeting from tonight to next Tuesday, January 23rd at 7:00pm in Mrs. Thome’s classroom (not the gym or the portables).


All your burning questions about commitment, timing, logistics, etc. will be answered then. Parents who join us for that meeting will receive a link for early registration to the play (meaning those kiddos are guaranteed a spot in the play) AND be able to pick their committee first.


Early registration for the play will take place January 23-January 28. Open registration will run January 29-February 2. 


Any questions, please email rockwellplay2024@gmail.com. Please email us if you cannot attend the meeting due to a schedule conflict.

Scholastic Book Fair

IS HERE!

We hope every family will consider stopping by the library either before or after their student’s conference next week for family sales at the Book Fair. It’s a great way to help support this important fundraiser, and it's always fun to see the space where our young Beagles are developing their lifelong love of reading. Your purchases help your school!

VOLUNTEERS NEEDED

We still need to fill a few volunteer slots for the book fair – please use this link to sign up for a volunteer shift. It's easy, and training will be provided the day of your shift!


"SHELFIE" CHALLENGE

In honor of Book Fair, we’re running a ā€œshelfieā€ challenge. What’s a shelfie, you ask? Well, it’s a picture of your student in front of a book shelf! It can be your book shelf at home, a book shelf at your favorite library branch, book store, etc. 

 

Please post a picture of your student’s shelfie and tag us on Facebook or Instagram, or use #rockwellshelfie OR you can post your shelfie in the comments on our Facebook post.


BONUS: Every student who posts a shelfie will be entered into a random drawing to win a $50 Snapdoodle gift certificate!  


**As we all know, cell-phones are not permitted at school, so please do not have your student try to capture a shelfie during school hours. If you’d like to snap a picture of your student during the book fair’s family sales (conference week), that’s fine. Just be very careful not to accidentally snap and post a picture of other students at the fair (privacy considerations).**
