APRES Dolphins SWIM April '25

Greetings Dolphin Families!

We officially have 5 weeks left in this school year. Time has gone by extremely fast. We are looking forward to an exciting end to what has been an EXTRAORDINARY school year. There is so much on the radar as we close out the year, so please grab your calendars and prepare to join us on the ride to the last day of school.

Parents with scholars in 3rd, 4th and 5th grades, please join us for the GMAS Parent Information session on Wednesday, April 16, 2025 at 6PM.

Please join us for the Spring Visual and Performing Arts Showcase on Tuesday, April 22nd. The visual arts showcase begins at 5:00PM and we will conclude with the A. Philip Randolph version of "The Wiz". You are in for a treat. We look forward to seeing you all there.

We are excited to acknowledge our PBIS Dojo winners with our annual end of the year field trips. The highest PBIS awarded students in each class have earned a special PBIS reward on Tuesday 4/22 and Wednesday 4/23. Congratulations to our very deserving PBIS Distinguished Dolphins!

Dear Parents,

Our school is participating in an important study led by RMC Research Corporation (RMC) and Communities In Schools (CIS) National. CIS is a program that provides support and resources for students. The results of this study will improve CIS for schools, students, and parents like you.

As part of the study, CIS National invites you to participate in a survey about your experience as a parent at Randolph Elementary School. It will take about 20 minutes to complete, and as a thank you, you will be entered into a raffle to win 1 of 5 $50 gift cards.

If you want to take the survey to provide feedback on your school's support, follow this link to access the consent form and survey by April 30, 2025.

Parent-teacher conferences often involve a wealth of information, and it can take time to digest. Please read the article below to learn five things to do after parent teacher conferences.

We are excited to welcome volunteers into our building! We love having volunteers on a regular basis. Please remember that if you are going to volunteer at Randolph ES in any capacity (in the classroom, in the media center, cafeteria, or at a school event, etc.) you must watch the volunteer video and fill out the volunteer form prior to being in the building. Once you complete the training, it takes up to 48 hours to process your approval. All approved volunteers must re-apply for volunteer status every two calendar years.
