Message from Mr. Kingery
Dear Art Rutkin Families,
Our students and staff came back from spring break ready to finish up the 3rd quarter next week. Please look for upcoming information from your child’s teacher about when the 3rd quarter report card will be ready to view in ParentVUE. We look forward to starting the 4th quarter soon and sharing all the end of the school year fun. This continues to be an amazing first year in this new school.
Art Rutkin’s first Spring Auction is here! This online event from 4/6-4/12 (Sneak Peak today - 4/5/24) and it's vital to setting up for end of the year activities. These funds will also ensure success in the 2024-2025 school year. Funds will support school events, Art Lit, the Fun Run and more. An auction sneak peak will happen today, 4/5/24, and bidding will open on 4/6. Item donations, money donations, and sponsorships are being accepted now. Check out the PSO’s Spring Auction Web Page for more information! Thank you to our PSO volunteers for contributing to our school’s success!
With Gratitude,
Mr. Kingery

Volunteers Needed for the Spring Walk and Roll to school day: 5/8/24
We are seeking volunteers to station each route, a stop along the way, and support documenting participants. We won the Golden Shoe for our walking participants last time and we're hoping for another great turnout! So we'll need a little extra help. Sign up here if you're interested!
