Good evening Rolling Acres Families,

These are the announcements for the week of March 16th.

*Our current mindset is Attitude of Gratitude.  Please ask your child what they are learning about the current mindset.

*RA spirit wear T-shirts are available for $15.00.  Students can pick up an order form in the office.  

*Good attendance is important at Rolling Acres.  We are again this year implementing our attendance practice.  Students who are considered chronically absent at any point during the year will be unable to participate in any extracurricular activities until they are no longer chronically absent.  Currently, If your child has 13.5 or more absences, excused or unexcused, they are currently chronically absent.  Please help RA by sending your child to school on time, every day..
