Weekly Letter January 28th1/28/2025 January 28, 2025
Welcome to the 2nd week of the 3rd quarter. I pray everyone received a good word and had a great worship experience at church yesterday. We are excited to kick off the week with some wonderful weather! Kinder Graduation Mark your calendar for our Kinder Graduation Ceremony on Wednesday, February 5 at 6:00 pm. Come support these excited kids as they walk across the stage. Dress Code Around this time of year we start seeing growth spurts. Please ensure students wear school clothes that meet our Dress Code (found in the Student Handbook). Boys should wear solid-colored pants and shirts, tucked in, with a belt. Girls are to wear solid color or plaid skirts or dresses, to the knee (in the front and the back), with a solid polo. Polo dresses are permitted. Girls are recommended to wear shorts, solid-color tights, or solid-color leggings under skirts. If you have any questions about this, please reach out to me. 100th Day of School We are moving our 100th Day of School celebration to February 20th. We will send out more information as we get closer to the date. Fundraiser Donations If any parents are available to act as chaperones and take students out to speak to businesses about donations for the fundraiser, please let us know! Fundraiser Donation Items The collective effort of our staff, students, and parents determines the fundraiser's success. We need everyone to get involved. Parents, we are asking each family to contribute/secure at least one item to be entered in the Live Auction. Parents, thank you for getting out and asking businesses for donations and to be a sponsor. We are so excited to see the support for our fundraiser and the donations already coming in. Remember to check the Google Doc online to see which businesses we have already visited and also to update whom you have contacted. There are lots of businesses that have online forms you can fill out from the comfort of your home, and we’ve already received several donations this way. Have a great week! Blessings, JR Regalado

Weekly Letter December 2, 202412/2/2024 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.

The winning class gets a pizza party, and they will get to wear jeans for ONE WHOLE WEEK! The canned food drive will run through November 22. Tuition Parents, please make sure you are current on your tuition payments. If you have questions about your tuition balance, please let us know. Pizza Party Winners: Thank you to everyone who participated so far in the Winter and Wreath fundraiser! LC 2 is the only class so far to have won a pizza party with the majority of the students participating in the fundraiser. THIS IS YOUR LAST CHANCE! We extended the deadline to this Thursday afternoon/Friday morning so there’s still a chance for the other classes to win a pizza party!

The LORD is good forever and ever. Current Student Enrollment Open3/25/2024 Good afternoon, RCA Family!
Today is the first day of the 4th quarter. This week Report Cards will be sent home in your blue Parent Envelope. The 4th quarter officially ends with the last day of school on Friday, May17, 2024 and our Awards Assembly. The following week, May 20-22, only students in LC 5, 6 and 7 who have tests to complete may be asked to come to school. Please encourage your child to do extra work, if there is a need to do so. Contact your child’s teacher if you have any questions or concerns. Early Enrollment Today begins early enrollment for current students. All students will receive a re-enrollment form in their Parent Envelope. To ensure your child has a place at RCA next year, please respond promptly. The early enrollment fee of $100 will only be good until Friday, April 5th - after that time it will increase to the current fee of $175. Parents, make sure if you wish to re-enroll your student(s), that you do so no later than Friday, April 5th, to receive the discount fee. Please understand that we can make no exceptions to this, as after this time we open enrollment to new students, and we must have an accurate assessment of each classroom's capacity. Tuition Our fundraiser this year was a success! Our totals show that we raised over $36,000. This will enable us to offset what tuition and fees do not cover for staff salaries and other expenses, and as we prepare to improve the school and upgrade/maintain the facilities. With that being said, we have made the prayerful decision to implement a slight increase in tuition for the 2024-2025 school year. Tuition for each returning student will increase $25 per month, per student ($225 per year). We strive to make attending RCA as affordable as possible; our fees are 40-60 percent below private schools in our area. Paid In Full Discount We are offering to all parents, a non-refundable repayment discount of 5% on their total annual tuition for all students enrolled, if paid in full by Thursday, August 1, 2024. This discount is for tuition only. Referral Incentive Let your family and friends know how much you love your school and refer them to RCA! We are now offering a $100 tuition credit-incentive for each student who enrolls in RCA (the new student must be enrolled through the first quarter). All $100 referrals will be credited to your tuition in December 2024. 2024-2025 Tuition Payment Schedule For the 2024-25 school year the first tuition payment will be due on August 1. The monthly tuition payment schedule will be August through January and March through May. In February of 2025, a non-refundable fee for books and enrollment will be due. Moving forward we will start including an RCA t-shirt in with the enrollment fee. Looking Forward Tuition for current 2023 students will start in August for the 2024 school year. In February of 2025 (next school year), the non-refundable enrollment and book fee will be due to guarantee your student’s place for the 2025-26 school year, and tuition payments will be August through January and March through May. This payment schedule adjustment is imperative to allow us to better prepare for the upcoming school year. 2024- 2025 RCA Tuition & Enrollment Schedule (for current students) April 5 Early Enrollment (returning student) includes T-Shirt $100 *After April 5 Enrollment Fee $175 August 26 Book Fees $375 Aug-Jan Monthly Tuition February 2025-2026 School Year Early Enrollment and Book Fee Mar-May Monthly Tuition Attached to this email you will find a copy of the Re-Enrollment Application and we will send a paper copy home this week in the blue Parent Envelope. If you have any questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to reach out. In His service, JR Regalado Praise the Lord for a successful fundraiser on Saturday! THANK YOU to our wonderful parents, students, staff, school family and church family for all your hard work. It was an amazing day, and none of it would have happened without the grace of our God.
We are thankful for all the great businesses and individuals who donated items for the live auction. Thanks too, to all the people who baked goods for both the silent and live auctions. And thank you, to all you great people who came out and supported RCA by spending your hard-earned money by investing in the future of our students. Last, but not least, ‘Thank You’ to Rachel and Brian Bracewell (Owners of Southside Market & Barbeque). They donated and cooked the sausage for the BBQ fundraiser. What a blessing. Please go by and support their business and all those who helped sponsor the RCA fundraiser. This week, we have Noon Early Release on Friday, March 8, and then we have no school for Spring Break March 11-15. There are just three weeks left until the end of the 3rd quarter! Scripture Memorization is due this Friday. Parents, thank you for your commitment to RCA. Let’s continue to work and go forward together. Keep us in your prayers. We are so blessed! I pray for God’s blessings on each of you. 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.

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, JR Regalado Happy Monday!
