Student of the Month Awards
Our January Student of the Month Awards Assembly will be held on February 9th at 9:15 in our cafeteria. We will be celebrating the students that were chosen to have best exemplified the values of the month for January. The January Value was: Be honest and admit when you have done something wrong. Teachers will send home invitations to the awards assembly to our award winners' families prior to the assembly.
For the month of February our Value is:
Be caring by making friends with someone who needs one!

Message from Leslie Rames
Our students have been completing their mid-year i-Ready Assessments in both Reading and Math. It has been exciting to see all of the growth that our students have made so far this school year, especially in Reading. We will be honoring all of our students K-8 that have shown growth on their Reading and/or Math iReady Mid-Year Assessment at our monthly awards assembly on Friday, February 9th. Family Invites to the awards assembly will be sent home in the week or so to all of our K-8th grade parents whose students showed growth on one or both of the assessments. We hope that all of our families of these students will be able to attend to show support of our students amazing growth so far this year. Also, please keep a look out as we will be sending home all of our student's i-Ready Assessment scores along with a flyer that provides information for parents about understanding their students assessment results.
At the top of the newsletter there is a flyer about the Great Kindness Challenge. The national official Great Kindness Challenge was held January 22-26, 2024. We at Castle Rock will be holding our Great Kindness Challenge on February 12-15, 2024. The Great Kindness Challenge provides a powerful tool that actively engages students, teachers, administrators, families, and communities in creating a culture of compassion, acceptance, unity, and respect. During the week our students will be given a checklist of kind actions and activities to do throughout the week at school and at home. In classrooms teachers will be teaching lessons on kindness and its impact on students themselves and others. Our hope is that the positive message students receive during the week will have an impact not just during the week, but long term. Please make sure to ask your students questions about the kindness activities that their class has done throughout the Great Kindness Challenge week. Also, it would be amazing if all of our students were able to participate in the Great Kindness Week Spirit Day wear given in the flyer.
Wishing everyone a kind and wonderful Valentine's Day!
