Hello RCPS families, we have had a great start to school and students are settling into classroom routines and enjoying the recesses with the lovely weather. Last week Friday we had a back to school assembly to review expectations and discussing ideas of how to ensure we create a safe and inclusive school. We are happy to announce that we do not have to reorganize any classes this year and no changes will be made based on our current classroom organization.
Please return all school forms by Friday, Sept 12th to your classroom teacher.
