Save the Dates! Join us in December for our Winter Concerts.

Kindergarten-2nd will have their concert on Thursday, December 12th.

3rd-5th will have their concert on Tuesday, December 17th.

Both concerts will start at 6 in the Rocky Point gymnasium. Students should "dress to impress". Students should arrive no later than 5:30 pm.

The Book Fair will be on Monday, December 9th-Tuesday, December 17th. Students will be able to visit and shop during their Media Center special day and before school. Families can shop the book fair before the Winter Concerts on the 12th and 17th.

Don't want to worry about sending cash with your student! There is a Book Fair eWallet. You can set it up on the Rocky Point Book Fair website or through this QR code.

If you have not connected rooms, our district communication system, you will be receiving a text invite this upcoming week. Please help us reach 100% of our classrooms with communication with families. We are currently only at 47% of classrooms that have 80% of their families connected through Rooms.

We have been working diligently to facilitate parent conferences for all students throughout this second quarter. If you have yet to have your parent conference, please expect an upcoming contact from our administration or our school social worker, Ms. Samantha Carter, as again it is our goal to conduct first semester parent conferences with 100% of our families.
