RCA Weekly Letter: September 22

This is the 4th week of the 1st quarter. We have just one more week until mid-quarter progress reports are issued.

Progress Reports
Progress Reports will be sent home in your Parent Envelope during the week of October 6 (LC 3 -7 only). If your child has homework, please ensure that you read and sign your child’s homework slip. It is our mission to have every student meet their goals each quarter. If a student is not completing their homework assignments, it will be difficult for them to meet their goals.

Absence and Tardies
For an absence or tardy to be excused, students must have a parent's or doctor’s note. Tardies and absences are being recorded. If a student has more than five tardies per quarter, they will not be allowed to participate in their class field trip.

SYATP
See You At The Pole this Wednesday! We will meet at 7:30 a.m. on Wednesday, September 24 (please have your student at school at 7:25 a.m.). All students will gather around the flagpole in the courtyard—parents, you are welcome to stay. Remember, students who attend are allowed to wear jeans with either a SYATP shirt OR an RCA shirt. Afterward, we will have snacks for LC 5-7 in the chapel and for LC 1-4 in the fellowship hall.
SYATP is a national student-led day of prayer. We are excited to see the Upperclassmen model their leadership abilities and pray for their peers.

Coloring Contest
The Rosanky Community Center asked our students if they would like to participate in a coloring contest. Coloring Sheets need to be turned in to their teacher this Friday. 

Grandparents/Grandfriends Day
Parents, if you have not signed up or if you are unsure what to bring, please contact your child’s teacher. Students will be dismissed from their classroom at 11:00 am to join their Grandparents/Grandfriends for lunch. Parents, to help us prepare in time, we kindly ask everyone to drop off the food in the morning or please have it here no later than 10:00 am.
We understand some students may have grandparents who are no longer with us, so we encourage them to invite their Grandfriends!
VOLUNTEERS NEEDED: We need two parent volunteers to help with the setup of the Grandparents Day lunch. Please contact Mrs. Sue at [email protected] if you are available to help.

Friday Noon Early Release
This Friday is an early release day. If your child is not going home with a grandparent, they will need to be picked up at 12:00 pm. Students may leave with their grandparents/grandfriends after lunch. If they are not on the Student Release Form, please send a note to the teacher.
There will be NO AFTER SCHOOL CHILD CARE this Friday

Picture Day
School picture day for individual and class pictures is next Tuesday, October 7. We could use one more volunteer to help with Picture Day. If you can volunteer, please let Mrs. Sarah know at [email protected]
​
RCA Holiday
On September 29-30, the RCA Staff will be attending an A.C.E. Educators Conference in Houston, TX. There will be no school on these two days. School will resume on Wednesday, October 1.
