❄️ RES FCS Service Project: Warm Hearts, Warm Hands! ❄️
Our students are helping make a difference this season by collecting warm clothing items for the Ministry Under the Bridge in Tyler, supporting our homeless community. They are in need of:
• Toboggans
• Scarves
• Blankets
• Warm socks
• Gloves 🧤 (XL gloves are especially needed!)
Please remember their one request: “one size fits all” gloves often don’t fit many of the men, so XL gloves are a huge help!
We will be collecting items until Thanksgiving break. Check out the flyer for more details. Let’s show our Rusk Elementary kindness and Eagle spirit!


Get ready to show your pink spirit! The PTO Pink Out Fundraiser is Thursday at recess, so grab pink out spirit tattoos, sparkly hair & face glitter, and even take a photo with our mascot! Don’t miss out on the fun while supporting a great cause! 🦅

A big thank you to our Lady Eagles for greeting our students this morning! Your smiles, high-fives, and positive energy were the perfect way to start the day. Our Little Eagles look up to you. Thank you for being such great role models! 🦅
