River Mill Elementary - September 13th
Dear River Mill Families,
We have several exciting events coming up at River Mill! We will be hosting our Fall Family Bingo Night on Thursday, September 19th at 6:00pm. If you have not arleady, please get your HomeTown Tickets for this event. More information and details are included in the flyer below. We are excited for the fun we will have together!
Now that we have settled into our routines and procedures at school, we are diving into the work! We are here to help your child grow socially, emotionally, and academically. Teachers have worked hard to understand each child's strengths and areas of growth. Now that this information is available, our instructional routines will really help your child achieve! You might even hear your child tell you about some goal setting they are doing as a class, and also for themselves. We encourage you to ask your child specific questions about their goals for this year!
One of our biggest fundraisers that puts money directly back into the classrooms is coming up on Thursday, October 3rd. Information will be coming home with your child next week about our upcoming Jog-a-Thon! We ask families who are willing to support their child to collect pledges. This year, pledges can be collected online and in person. This is an extremely fun event and we would love volunteers to help as well. If you are interested, please be in touch with your child's teacher. Our school Jog-a-thon pledge page is located at www.99pledges.com/fund/rivermille. You will recieve an email with additional information and a unique link for your own student's pledges very soon. Please look below at our Jog-a-thon flyer.
