Thank you very much!
RCS has the opportunity to have a team member from the Reach Child and Youth Development Society join us on May 3 to talk about ways in which we are all similar, ways in which we all may differ and how we all have strengths and challenges. Students will have an opportunity to think about ‘social senses’, how we use then in our daily lives and what it’s like for people with autism to use their ‘social senses’.
Dear Parents:
To help students and staff prepare for the evening musical, the library and computer lab will be closed after school on Thursday, April 18th. Please arrange to pick up your child at 2:45.
Hi Students and Parents,
It’s that time of the year again when we raise donations to support International China Concern.
Last Friday, we watched a video and heard some true stories about the needs of orphans and abandoned children in China. We were challenged to sacrifice our time, effort, and comfort to help others in need. Our theme in grade 4 is “Give Up to Lift Up.” Could we “give up” some of our free time to earn donations? Could we “give up” our shyness to bravely share the ICC story with others?
We hope students will reach their fundraising goals, but also work hard to achieve their goals to take a risk to step out of their comfort zones in order to help abandoned and disabled children this Easter season.
