December is here. I know the students are excited for Christmas and so am I! What a blessing that as we enter into the Christmas season, we know the true meaning of Christmas and have the freedom to celebrate it not only in our churches and homes but at our school.
If your student is behind in any subjects, he or she may have their goals increased and/or be required to do extra work so that they may catch up before the end of the quarter. At the start of the quarter, we let all students know this was a short quarter with the holiday breaks and they will need to be diligent in the classroom.

Winter Wreath Fundraiser     The totals are in! Our RCA students raised $1,976.50. A big “THANK YOU!” to everyone who participated and helped raise money for the classrooms.

Canned Food Drive   RCA Students collected over 1,300 items for our canned food drive. We are so thankful for everyone who contributed. Congratulations to LC 1& LC2!! They were the winners of our Collection Contest. LC1 & LC2 will get to wear jeans for the next 2 weeks, and they also won a pizza party!! Because all of our students went above and beyond, LC 3-7 will get to wear jeans for a week, starting next Monday.

Christmas Classroom Parties   Later this week, teachers will be sharing information about their classroom Christmas Party. Please be on the lookout for a message in your classroom group chat.

RCA/RBC Christmas Play   On December 15, at 10 am, our students will be putting on a Christmas play titled ‘Unto Us a Child Is Born…’. This is always a sweet time, and the kids always do a great job. We invite you and your family to be our guests.
