- Third Grade Winter Party: Our room parents are busy planning for our 3rd Grade Winter Party that will take place next Wednesday, December 19th from 1:30-2:30 PM. Please take a look at the online sign up to volunteer or donate an item. Due to limited seating and space, the administration has asked that our party be only for students and parent volunteers, not for siblings or other parents. In the past we have invited parents to our grade level parties. This year we cannot facilitate the hundreds of extra people during parties and still maintain a safe environment. Please don't forget that all parent helpers must be pre-approved through the RRISD Volunteer Application process. Thank you in advance for making our party a success!
- Bluebonnet Book Program: Our class's goal for each student to read 5 books! The Bluebonnet Program only goes until mid-January. Time is running out!
