Good Evening RCA Family!


We are now in the 8th week of the 3rd quarter. Students’ goals might be adjusted this week to help them find a good stopping point before leaving for Spring Break. If your child comes home with homework, please ensure it is completed and that the homework slip is signed and returned to the teacher.


This Friday is a Noon Early Release. Please arrange to have your child picked up from school at noon. If your child is being picked up by someone not on the pick-up list, please make sure you notify the teacher with a note signed by you. There will be no after-school care on this day.
At the fundraiser, the LC 7 class was the winner of “Jeans For A Week!”. When we return from Spring Break all students in LC 7 will be allowed to wear jeans. Mrs. Rhonda will send more information about this in your classroom group chat.
​

This school year's projected income from tuition accounts for approximately 70% of the cost of educating our students. To cover the remaining expenses, we rely on the generosity of our community supporters through contributions to our annual fundraiser. With the generous donation from TCS Mechanical, the RCA Staff and I are thrilled to share that RCA raised $97,672.15 after covering expenses. Thank you again to everyone who put in the effort to help make this year’s fundraiser a BIG success!


Have a blessed week,
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, as well as for all the people who baked goods for the silent and live auctions. And thank you to all the great people who came out and supported RCA by investing their hard-earned money in our students' future. When we finalize the total amount raised we will share it with you.
Progress reports will be sent home this week. If you have any questions about your child’s grades, please contact their teacher.
Spring Break is March 17-21. We are still three weeks away, so let's not let the students fall into vacation mode too early. Students need to be at school on time and working hard in the classroom.


RCA School T-Shirts   It is around this time of year when students start growing out of their clothes. If you would like to order a RCA  school t-shirt please do so using the link below. THE DEADLINE TO ORDER IS THIS THURSDAY.

PIZZA PARTY!   Next Monday, RCA will provide pizza for all RCA students. We want to express our appreciation to them for all their hard work before, during, and after the fundraiser. Please send your child’s favorite drink with them to school this day, plus snacks for break time. If your child has dietary needs, please communicate this with their teacher.
Parents, thank you for your commitment to RCA. Let’s continue to work and go forward together. Please remember us in your prayers.


Have a blessed week,

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

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.


Kinder Graduation   Mark your calendar for our Kindergarten Graduation Ceremony on Wednesday, February 5 at 6:00 pm. Come support these excited kids as they walk across the stage. It is sure to be a fun evening. 


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 me know! 
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. 


Report Cards    Report Cards will be sent home in your child’s blue envelope this week. Please review them, sign them, and have your child return them to their teacher.  


Early Enrollment for 2025-2026 School Year     In the blue envelope that will be sent home this week you will find an Early Renrollment Application form. Please look for the ‘2025-26 RCA Early Enrollment’ email it will give detailed information regarding enrollment for next year. 


School Supplies    Please check with your teacher on supplies needed in the classroom. Most students are running low on tissue boxes and writing utensils. 


Have a blessed evening,
Bro. JR

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.

Happy Monday!
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
