BBQ/AUCTION WEEK IS HERE!


The BBQ Dinner and Auction is this Saturday—March 2!! Excitement is in the air. There is still time left to donate and solicit items for the fundraiser and sell the remainder of your BBQ or Raffle tickets. Please remember, we need all BBQ tickets paid for (to Mrs. Becky in the office) before Thursday of this week, even if unsold. We also need the stubs of SOLD raffle tickets turned in by Thursday and any that are unsold turned in as well.


If you are bringing in an auction item, please have it to the school by Friday morning. If you need to arrange a later drop-off than that, please let us know.


Auction Items Needed: We have some nice vacations, hunting trips, and concert ticket packages, but we could use some benches, fire pits, quilts, and things of this nature.


Parent/Student Jobs: Duties for parents and students are being sent out! We need to hear back from you as soon as possible to confirm that you can work the assigned shift. Thank you!


LARGE TO-GO ORDERS: If you have sold tickets to an individual or business and they plan on getting 10 or more To-Go plates at one time, please let them know to contact Mrs. Becky at 512-360-3109 or [email protected].


Meat Cutters: We can use some extra help cutting the brisket on Saturday morning. If you can help with this, please contact me directly at 512.560.3357.


This Thursday, February 29, students in LC 3 and up should bring clothes that can get dirty—we will be breaking down desks and cleaning in the afternoon. Also, on Thursday, there will be NO heat-ups.


Remember, there is no school on Friday, March 1 as all staff will be setting up for the fundraiser. On Monday, March 6, all students may wear jeans with an RCA shirt to school.


We are so thankful for your commitment to RCA. As we prepare for this weekend, we feel blessed to have such a great group of students/parents/grandparents praying for our school.


Blessings,
JR Regalado

I hope that you had a wonderful Presidents Day—and enjoyed the long weekend.


This is the 5th week of the 3rd quarter and this week your child’s Mid-quarter Progress Report will be sent home in the Parent Envelope. Please look it over carefully and make sure that if your child is on level, he/she is on schedule to complete at least 3 grades in each subject for this quarter. If your child is behind and not on level, he/she should be on schedule to complete more than 4 Paces in any subject in which they are behind. (All grades after 1/20/23 are for this quarter). We want each child to achieve Privilege Status for the quarter. Please discuss with your child’s teacher any concerns or questions you might have.
​
Very soon, we will be opening pre-registration for all returning students. To guarantee your child will have a spot next year at RCA, you will need to respond quickly when re-enrollment opens. Watch for more information coming soon!


Student Tardies     School starts at 8:20 am. If your child is not at their class table by 8:20 am, they will be counted as tardy. Students who arrive after 8:20 am must report to the Fellowship Hall, and not hang out in the restrooms or hallways during our morning exercises. The exterior doors automatically lock at 8:25 am, students who show up after this time will need to be signed in by a parent or guardian. If you have any questions or concerns about this, please give me a call or stop by the office so we can discuss it. 


Solar Eclipse of April 8, 2024     A solar eclipse occurs when the moon passes between the Earth and the Sun, masking the image of the Sun from the viewers on Earth. We wish for families to experience the Solar Eclipse together so RCA is giving students the day off. This day off is not on the school calendar.


FUNDRAISER UPDATES
THE FUNDRAISER IS (ALMOST) HERE: The BBQ Dinner and Auction is coming up NEXT Saturday—March 2!! Excitement is in the air as we are getting very close! It is IMPORTANT that we have your help and participation—so, PLEASE! PLEASE! Donate and solicit items for the auction, and keep selling those BBQ dinner tickets.


Large Orders: We need to know if you, or anyone you have sold BBQ tickets to, will be coming in to get 10 or more plates at one time. We have a list of all large groups and get those orders ready in advance. Please call Mrs. Becky at 512-360-3109 or email [email protected]  to let us know the name, number of plates, and the approximate time of pick up.


Live Auction Items: We have some nice vacation, hunting, and sporting event packages for the auction, but we could use some items like furniture, BBQ pits, kitchenware, fire pits, home decor, and things of that nature. Please continue to reach out to family, friends, and businesses for donations for the Live Auction. If you have an item that needs to be picked up, please let us know so we can make arrangements to have it delivered to RCA.


Blessings,
