Let's get festive! The 12 Days of Christmas starts next week! Holiday Dress-Up Days are one of our favorite holiday traditions at RES! Choose one day, choose two days, choose all 12 days or choose zero days to participate... no pressure! It’s no secret that the holidays are a busy time, but in no way is this intended to cause additional stress. Students who are in attendance each day will receive a treat to add to the holiday fun!
RES students ❤️ Kona Ice!!
RES students ❤️ Kona Ice!!
Many of Mrs. Dominy’s and Mrs. Kadlecek’s students have been utilizing their recess time to enhance their yo-yo skills and learn new tricks.
Thanksgiving is a time when 3rd Graders share in the creation of their traditional “stone soup” on the last day of class before Thanksgiving. This is a tradition that has been enjoyed and passed on by families and classrooms throughout the centuries. The value of thankfulness is brought to the children’s consciousness by helping them become aware of the needs of other people in the world by sharing from our own bountiful lives.
Happy Thanksgiving!
➜𝐀𝐓𝐓𝐄𝐍𝐃𝐀𝐍𝐂𝐄 𝐓𝐀𝐊𝐄𝐎𝐕𝐄𝐑: Week One
Students who had perfect attendance the week of November 6th-9th were invited to have a slice of pizza with the Eagle today. Attendance plays a big part in student success and we want students to get excited about learning and have ownership in their school experience.
Students at Rusk Elementary were able to purchase feathers to dress their classroom turkey. The class who collected the most feathers would get to enjoy their teacher dressing up as a turkey for a day.
We also had a Friendsgiving parade where we circled around the track. We gave his family our feather donations, chanted his name, and cried happy tears.
It put a smile on our faces and brought joy to our hearts to see his sweet face!
Kona Ice will be on campus Thursday, November 16th. All online orders need to be placed by 8:45 am on Thursday morning.
Monday, November 13th, is the last day to buy feathers to help support one of our precious students and his family. It’s a close race between a few teachers!
Thank you all so much for your support ❤️
High 5's for Heroes
Veterans are the Heart of America
Veterans lined the entry way, bus line and car line of Rusk Elementary School Thursday morning and were thanked, hugged and given high 5's by both students, faculty, and parents.
Thank you Mrs. Blackmon for organizing such a great event to honor our local Veterans.
Perfect Attendance Takeover
