Dear Rock Ridge Families,

This, I believe, is the windiest April that I personally have ever experienced. Winter does not want to loosen its grip on us as we await the arrival of spring. Hopefully this is just around the corner but until then please continue to dress your children prepared for cold weather.

Hanging out at car loop is always something I look forward to, giving me an opportunity to not only be another set of eyes for safety but also to connect with parents and greet or say goodbye to students. Almost every morning I see siblings walking or dropping of their brother and/or sister for school with some siblings dressed up for the occasion. One of these siblings belongs to Haedyn Richardson, her younger brother, who shows up at car loop each morning wearing a different costume. He always greets me with a smile and knuckles and always tells me to, “have a good day”. This is one of the reasons why I love my community and my job. Thank you.

Just a few reminders:

• Respect the church parking area. We are

  guests using their property so please remember to drive carefully and respect their generosity.

• ALL absences must be communicated to the front office by an adult/parent. Not a child.

• Children are not allowed to text parents themselves should they become ill at school. The office needs to make the call so that we can monitor illnesses within the building. The office will notify parents/guardians if your child needs to be picked up.

• If your child has diarrhea, fever, or vomiting please do not send them to school. Even if medicine improves their symptoms.

  Thank you all for your help with these items. If you have any questions, celebrations, or concerns please reach out to me. Have a great day!

  Sincerely,
  Peter Mosby, Principal
