Hello River Bend Families!
Happy Friday everyone! We had an amazing red carpet assembly on our Wednesday early release day. Students were flexible as we used half the gym. Our Scholastic Book Fair was held on the other side. Thank you to Felicia Wootton and all of her volunteers from set up to clean up and all of the sales shifts in between.
Conference Night was great. It's always nice to see so many families coming and going. Our teachers enjoyed a delicious dinner provided by 4th grade parent, Marie-Anne Velasco of Nudo House. Thank you so very much!
As we are now halfway through November, typically known for being a month of showing gratitude, I just want to take a moment to thank all of our families for sharing your kids with us, trusting us, and partnering with us, I appreciate all of you. Have a wonderful weekend.
Each child as my own,
Jaime
