Greetings Richardson Families,
Our Family Dance on Friday was a Blast!
We are so grateful for the time spent connecting as a school community. A huge thank you to our amazing PTA, staff, and all the volunteers who helped organize and run the event. We were also deeply appreciative of the many students and families who jumped in (without even being asked) to help clean up at the end of the night. It truly reflects the strength of our Richardson community!
Coming together to support one another and making sure our school is a great place for everyone is one reason we applied for a Full-Service Community School grant. For those who may not be aware, we were thrilled this summer to receive this three-year grant through the Minnesota Department of Education! Over the coming months, we will share updates with our families about the exciting work this grant will make possible.
Be sure to read on for a special message from our new Community School Coordinator, Darcy Holle. Darcy is building a team of staff, community members, and families to lead this important work, and we can't wait to see all the great things to come.
We look forward to many more family events throughout the year! (See below for more photos of the dance, 2nd grade's flapjack party, our Golden Penguin winners and picture day information).
Should you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to reach out to the main office, Miss Susi or me at anytime. My contact information is mhoude@isd622.org or 651-748-6910.
With Penguin Pride,
Mrs. Houde (pronounced "hood")
