October 2017 Newsletter
Posted on 12/16/2017
Dear Rock Ridge Community:
I hope this letter finds you well as we approach Halloween and our annual Monster
Mash celebration which will be held on October 27th from 5-7pm. You can also find
this and other events on the website calendar. Speaking of the website, we are about
to launch our new website and school APP shortly, hopefully sometime this month.
Please feel free to share your feedback so that we can create a website that is best
designed to meet our stakeholders needs.
I would like to recognize all of our parents and staff who have served in our nation’s
military and Coast Guard. We will be having a special recognition ceremony again on
Friday, November 10th starting at 2:30pm. Please feel free to attend; veterans,
community members and parents.
I would like to personally thank a number of different individuals and community
partners for their generous donations of time and money towards different programs
at our school.
• Faith Lutheran Church-Outdoor Ed financial support
• Echo Ridge at Metzler Ranch-Nutrition food services donation for students in
need
• Costco-260 backpacks that were sent to Houston
• Geneil Aguilar-for organizing the Houston backpack drive to help students in
need after hurricane Harvey
• Anonymous community members-for their generous donations of school
supplies
● Our PTO for hosting the Rock Ridge Fund Run, saving thousands of dollars by
not using a service
● Our amazing community who donated generously towards increasing our
educational technology footprint
“It takes a village”
Finally, remember to check the district website, call the district weather line
(303.387.SNOW) or check with local news for school closures. Keep in mind that
school begins at 8:30am so please do not drop your children off (especially the
young ones) before 8:20am. The school does not have supervision for lineup prior
to this time and thus, you could be placing your child at unnecessary risk. This is
especially true if your children are not dressed properly for inclement weather. Our
students go outside for recess when the weather is above 20 degrees so please plan
accordingly.
Have a safe and wonderful break.
Sincerely,
Peter Mosby, Principal
