In March, our students will learn about Women's History Month and important women in the U.S. One notable figure they studied is Alyssa Nakken, who made history as the first woman to become a full-time MLB coach for the San Francisco Giants, an MLB baseball team. Additionally, our students enjoyed making and eating our recipe, “Bat and Baseball Snacks.”

Great Kindness Challenge! RHE has been challenged by Jensen Elementary!
Our sister school, Jensen Elementary, has challenged us to have our own Great Kindness Challenge. We encourage all staff, students and their families to participate in different kindness activities around their neighborhood and communities. Some examples: picking up litter at their local park, smile at everyone you see today, pick a few toys to donate, write a thank you letter, donate canned goods to local charities, give someone a flower, and many more.
Please take pictures and share them with your child’s teacher so we can share on social media and challenge another Sharyland campus.
