Principal's Message

Dear Ross Roadrunner Families,

Spooktacular 2022 was an amazing gathering complete with princesses, astronauts, zombies, wizards and everything in between! Huge shout-out to the Ross PTA and Spooktacular Co-Chairs Holly Kilness Packett and Becky Ballard and all of the parent volunteers for creating a fun event for all ages and for collaborating with our local community to build relationships and support for Ross.

MPD 3rd District is hosting a Halloween Haunted House and treats this weekend at their 16th and U Street NW parking garage from 6:00-8:00pm.

Please mark your calendars for another special Ross tradition that will require lots of volunteers, "Super Saturday Holiday Fest and Tree Sale" on December 3. Watch your email in the coming weeks to learn more.

Warm Regards,

Holly Searl, Principal
