There is no shortage of festive holiday events at RES this season. From the beloved caroling, and fun-filled dress-up days, plus opportunities to participate in service projects, to creating crafts every student will find their favorite way to celebrate December. Check out why the holidays are best spent at Rusk Elementary School with classmates and staff. Mark your calendar for these fun-filled events.
The 5th Annual "More Than A Book" event will be held during the month of December. In previous years, the event has been extremely successful in collecting more than 1,000 books. With your help, we hope to make this year's event just as amazing!
Please consider supporting students' reading success by donating a book to the "More Than a Book" book drive in honor of a loved one. A convenient way to buy a book for the library is to buy from our Amazon.com Wish List, and have the item shipped directly to the school. It’s like a gift registry for the library. At your request, we will acknowledge your donation with a bookplate. Please refer to our Amazon wish list for the most current requests. Hardcover and paperback books of all genres for children, teens, and young adults are welcome.
The Rusk Elementary School campus also welcomes parents, students, and community members to drop off book donations.
May the peace and joy of the holidays be with you today and throughout the new year. Wishing you a happy holiday season and a joyous New Year.
