Good evening RA families. These are the announcements for the week of May 11th.
*Our current mindset is Live to Give. 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 17 or more absences, excused or unexcused, they are currently chronically absent. Please help RA by sending your child to school on time, every day..
Our attendance rate for the year is 93.03% with a chronic absence rate of 18.73% down from 20.07% last week.
*8th grade promotion will take place on Tuesday, May 19th at 6:00. Promotion will take place at Richwoods. No tickets are necessary.
*Soccer teams - please check with your coaches for the practice schedule for the week.
*THANK YOU to all the families who donated treats for staff last week. They were fantastic!
