McDonald's Spirit Night
Our Spirit Night in April will be April 3rd at McDonald's on MacArthur and 39th. Your favorite Rollingwood staff will be there to take your order and serve your food. So come by and see us.
Soccer
Soccer for 4th and 5th is happening in April. Girls will practice from 3:15 - 4:15 on Wednesdays beginning April 2. Boys will practice from 3:15 - 4:15 on Mondays beginning April 7. Students must be picked up before 4:30. Students must make good choices during school hours and during practice to participate.
State Testing
The state testing window is April 15 - May 15. If your child is in 3rd - 5th grades you will be receiving more information about their specific testing dates. Please make sure your child gets a good night's sleep and a filling breakfast, to give them their best chance of success.
Reminders
- Joining PTO supports the students and teachers, if you haven't signed up please do. Download the form here and return it to the school.
- Please remember that school begins at 8:00am this year and the doors open at 7:30 for breakfast. Students are Tardy after 8:00.
- Dismissal begins at 3:00pm. If you want to check your student out early, that must be done no later 2:30pm
- If you drive a car to the school to pick up your child, the safest way for you to do that is through the car rider line. If time is an issue, arrive between 3:10 and 3:15 and you should not have to wait more than 5 minutes, under normal circumstances.
- Birthday snacks are welcome as long as they are store bought and prepackaged.
