SCHOOL POOL UPDATE - $4,870.00 FOR ROCKWELL PTA
| |
Last Thursday at our PTA General Membership Meeting, the Mayor of  Redmond (John Marchione) presented our school's PTA with a check from the School Pool program for $4,870.00! The School Pool program in the fall encouraged families to carpool, walk, and find other ways to get to school to relieve traffic. We were one of the top-earning schools thanks to our parents, kids, and teachers who participated in the program!
Additionally, he provided an overview and answered questions about current issues in Redmond. One update you will notice this week is the new electronic speed limit signs that are going in around our school.

HEALTH ROOM - MID YEAR CALL FOR VOLUNTEERS

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!
