• Water, snacks & lovely trinkets will be on sale for $1 each at the concession stand.
• Price of admission is $1 per person. Age 4 & under is free. 
• Admission includes BINGO card & Unlimited BIG BAND fun!

Can you spare a half hour or hour to volunteer that evening?

We need lots of parent help to throw a big event like this and have spots open for admission & concession sales, set-up & clean-up. 

Here is the link to the Sign Up Genius or feel free to contact:

Contact Stacy Hatch , Laura Drover  or Arora Shweta if you can "swing" time in your schedule to help the night of the event.  

Our wonderful office staff is getting inundated with little visitors to the Health Room...and need more parent helpers!  

If you can spare a few hours a month or a week to help "staff" the health room, it would be greatly appreciated. Mostly it involves bandaging little cuts or applying ice packs, taking temps, filling out paperwork and sometimes calling parents. 

You will be trained and serious cases will be handled by the office staff.  If you are already trained, please consider signing up for another shift. Mid-morning to mid-afternoon (covering recess and lunch) is the most important time for volunteers!

Please email Melissa Sutton for more information!

Dear Rockwell Families,

Rockwell Staff are hoping to ask our community for help in acquiring as many USB mice as possible. We'd like to get all of our students working with the technology for State testing as soon as we can and at the same time. It would be greatly appreciated and helpful if any unused mice could be donated to the school. 

Please drop them off at the front office with Julie and Kerry. As always, thank you for your continued support of our school, staff, and students!

Thanks again! 

Jimmy Cho

Save Those Used Books!

In the spring, the Rockwell Library will once again have a Used Book Sale! The purpose of the sale is to get books into the hands of children and to earn some extra money for the Rockwell Library.  So, please start weeding through your books now!  We accept children and adult books.  Donations can be dropped off any time at the library office.  More information regarding the details of the sale will be posted at a later date. Thanks in advance for your support.
