Attendance Awareness Month
PTA Reflections
Calling the creators of tomorrow to participate in the PTA Reflections: Accepting Imperfection. This year, Rainwater students will be given the opportunity to participate in the PTA Reflections Program. This is an optional project for students to complete. PTA Reflections is a nationally acclaimed student recognition program to encourage artistic creativity in the classroom and at home. By completing this project the student’s work will be eligible to be entered in the 2024-2025 Reflections Contest. For the project to be entered into the PTA Contest, at least one member of your household must be a member of the Rainwater PTA. You can join PTA by signing up at www.joinpta.org ! Look out for more information on Parent Square and in Tuesday folders.

Lunch with Parents
Parents,
We know you are excited to enjoy lunch with your kids, and we love to share lunch with you. We will begin Student Lunch with Parents on Friday, September 6th. The first few weeks of school we use that time to solidify our procedures, help students (especially our youngest) learn the routines of the cafeteria, and allow students time to form friendships and visit.
Thank you for understanding. From September 6th forward, parents are invited to the cafeteria to lunch with their children each Friday.
Launch Squad
At Rainwater we are Rocket Loud & Rocket Proud and that starts with our families! We are excited to kick off a brand new way for you to get involved, introducing the Launch Squad: a group To grow parent involvement and male presence on campus through positively impacting the wellbeing of students & staff.
This hype squad will be out at drop off on Friday mornings pumping kids up with fist bumps and high-fives as they come in to school! If you’d like more information email Josh Carter: joshuacarter01@me.com .
