Greetings Rondout Family, Friends and Faculty,


We ended our day today with a long-standing Rondout tradition. The Staff Student Volleyball Game has a rich and enjoyable history at our school. The Seventh and Eighth Grade classes had the chance to compete against the faculty teams, resulting in a fun and engaging time for all participants. The students emerged victorious in their grade level matches against the faculty.


After their success in their games with the faculty, the Seventh

and Eighth Grade Teams continued with a grade level competition with the Eighth Grade securing a win in two out of three sets during their competition with the Seventh Grade. We extend our thanks to all the parents who joined us to support the students and staff during this exciting event.

 

As we look ahead, we invite you to save the date for April 4th

at 6 p.m. when the Sheriff’s Department will deliver a presentation aimed at equipping families with essential knowledge for navigating the digital world safely. Your RSVP is kindly requested to help us prepare adequate space, materials, and refreshments for all attendees.


We are thrilled to announce the upcoming Talent Show for students in grades K-7. Another favorite Rondout tradition, the Talent Show will be part of the Family Friendly Fun Day on the last day of school, June 3, 2024. The Talent Show is held every three years and promises to be an exciting event for the whole family. Applications for the Talent Show will be sent out after Spring Break, and we are also looking for volunteers to help make this event a success. We hope many students don’t miss the opportunity to highlight their talents and have some fun.


Hoping that wherever you and your families are spending Spring Break here or away that you find some true Spring weather to enjoy and time with your family and friends. Have a wonderful week! Until next time…

Special Seniors Day 2024!
Mark your calendars for Friday, April 26th! 
For one day each spring, the population at Rondout doubles. That day, we open the doors and welcome special guests for Special Seniors Day, an event that recognizes and celebrates the special relationships and interactions between generations, and the desire for multigenerational interaction as part of our children’s education. The goal of the program is to give students a chance to bond with their special guest at school. 
The event is a collaboration between the PTSA, teachers, school administration, and the community. Proud grandparents, aunts, uncles, godparents and family friends have flown in from as far away as Los Angeles to attend. Parents play a critical role in Special Senior’s Day (see below).  Because of this, parents are encouraged to find someone other than themselves to participate, but if they want to be special guests, that’s OK.
RSVP Early
We want to personalize this event as much as possible!  To do that, we need to capture the names of each Special Guest visiting Rondout.  There are 2 ways you can RSVP:
 Electronically - Event information was emailed to Rondout families on Sunday, March 11th. In case the invite went to your spam, the RSVP is below.
Paper RSVP, via Backpack Mail - Fill out the RSVP form attached to the Falcon Flyer and send it to school in your child’s backpack.

Parents/Volunteers Needed

The Public Works Village Department is sponsoring the USAgain “Tree Machine”. They will plant a tree for every filled "Tree Machine". We will be able to keep track of our progress on an individual dashboard which will calculate the impact of our donations.  The collection bin is at the northwest corner of the staff parking lot. Please do not leave items outside of the bin and honor the collection guidelines. Thank you in advance for supporting the efforts of our students to support the future of our planet.
