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 January 22nd1/22/2025 Happy Wednesday!
I pray everyone had an enjoyable extended weekend. This morning I encouraged the students to consider the days left in the week and to make sure they are working with effort in the classroom. If you have any questions about your child’s academic status, please contact their teacher. “Thank you!”, to everyone one who attended the BBQ Parent Meeting last week. In the next few days, I will send out an email with more information regarding the fundraiser and attached will be the forms that were handed out. If you prefer a paper copy, please email me and let me know so I can send it home with your child.

As you sell BBQ tickets, remember to turn in the funds received to the school office. I can provide a receipt for the money you have turned in. Please do not send your student to school with cash or checks that can be misplaced—we need to make sure that all of the funds turned in are properly accounted for. You may also drop the money in the drop box located next to the Principal’s office--just fill out the yellow slip so that we may properly account for what is turned in.

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.

It’s crazy to think Thanksgiving is just a few weeks away. As we get closer to Thanksgiving, I try to reflect on what I am thankful for. Today and every day, I am thankful for our RCA teachers and staff. Our staff cares about our RCA students, and their love for them goes beyond your child's academics, they are selfless, they put in a lot of effort to meet the students' needs, and most importantly, they all share a desire for our RCA students to have a relationship with Jesus. Field Trips If you have received a field trip permission form, please return it to your child’s teacher. Students who do not return the permission form will not be allowed to go on the field trip. Upper Learning Center students will receive their permission form this week. Parent/Teacher Conferences At Parent Orientation, I shared that we encourage you to be in the know about your child’s academics. If you haven’t already, you should be hearing from your child’s teacher to schedule a conference. During the day, teachers are very busy tending to the needs of their students. If you contact a teacher during the day, please give them time to respond, if it’s an emergency, please contact the office. Your questions and/or concerns are important to us, so we encourage you to schedule a time to meet with the teacher so they can give full attention to your needs. Having a scheduled meeting allows the teacher time to make arrangements to have someone cover the class so the student’s needs in the classroom are not put on hold. Canned Food Drive The Canned Food Drive started today!! All non-perishable food donated will go to the RBC food pantry, which will then be distributed to families in need for Thanksgiving. Rosanky Baptist Church has purchased turkeys to go along with the food that will be distributed. Also, don’t forget we have a friendly competition going on between classes. Whichever class brings in the most canned food and non-perishable food items wins a Pizza Party, and they get a week of wearing jeans to school. The Food Drive ends on November 22!! Noon Early Release NEXT Friday, November 22, is an early release day. There will be no after-school care on this day. Please make arrangements to have your child picked up at noon. Teachers will be on campus for half a day. RCA Thanksgiving Holiday Break November 25-29 is our Thanksgiving Holiday break. School will resume on December 1. We hope and pray everyone has a safe and blessed Thanksgiving! RCA Hoodies We have a limited amount of Adult-sized RCA Hoodies. If you would like to purchase one, please send $30 cash or check to school with your child. Hoodies will be sold on a first-come-first-serve basis. Have a blessed week, JR Regalado I hope everyone is having a great week!
I apologize, but for some reason this email did not send on Monday. I am resending it in hopes that you receive it. If you have any questions, please let me know. Today is the first day of the 2nd quarter. This week report cards will be sent home. When you receive your child’s report card, please sign it and have them return it to their teacher. Your student should have at least 3 stars in every subject (if on-level) and if your child has any gap subjects, they should have 4-6 stars per subject. Canned Food Drive The food drive kicks off on November 12. Each year we have a school-wide friendly competition to see which class can bring in the most canned/non-perishable food items. 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! Please feel free to text me with any questions at 832-616-1009 -Samantha Medina Winter Brochure Fundraiser: We ask that you make your final selections for the Winter brochure and Wreath fundraiser and submit the paper order forms no later than this Thursday afternoon or Friday morning (we will not be able to accept them past this date since the date has already been extended).

Christmas Play at RBC Last year, the kids did a fabulous job putting on the Christmas play, and many students regretted not getting involved. As crazy as it might seem, Christmas is right around the corner! Below, you will find a link to sign up your child for the Christmas play. This year, Mrs. Terri Escobedo will be heading this up. Parent volunteers are always appreciated and welcomed. We can use your help with costumes and stage production.
