ROCKWELL "FIELD DAY" IS COMING!
| |
On your marks! Get set! Go! 
Mark your calendars for Rockwell's annual Field Day which will take place rain or shine on Wednesday, June 10th from 9:30 - 11:15 a.m. K-5 students will participate in a wide variety of fun events that test their endurance and creativity.
We need your help to make this exciting day as fun and organized as possible!
- Event Hosts will receive all materials needed to set up and manage a field event station. Hosts will offer students encouragement and praise for their participation, and assist with station clean up. Host check-in is at 9:00 a.m. in front of the school. Younger siblings are welcome to accompany hosts, just let us know so that we can assign you to an appropriate station. All hosts are required to have a current background check on file with LWSD. Also, let us know if you would like to be paired at your event station with an English-speaking volunteer.
- Water Balloon Fillers will receive 30 small balloons and nozzle via Kid Mail the week prior to field day, and will need to return the filled balloons to school with your student the morning of Wednesday, June 10th. Drop containers will be located in front of the school.
***We are also looking for new recruits who would be interested in taking over the duties of Field Day Co-Chairs (Volunteer Coordinator and Equipment Coordinator) for next year as we will sadly have to say our goodbyes. There is lots of time to jump on our team now and get the hang of things while having some fun.
If you are interested in either position or would like to volunteer as a Host or Water Balloon Filler please email Laura Drover.
Thank you!
The Rockwell Field Day Team

THANK YOU ART DOCENTS!
| |
A huge thank you to all the amazing Art Docents for their hard work,  dedication, and enthusiasm! The Art Showcase was the culmination of their monthly art lessons -- from October through May -- and it was fantastic to see the walls of Norman Rockwell covered with the students' masterpieces!A perfect May evening is buying up some books at the Used Book Sale, getting a scoop with sprinkles at the Ice Cream Social, and then strolling the school's corridors to check out the gorgeous and fun artwork!And of course, a fist-bump to the teachers, the staff, and the PTA for being great supporters of the Art Docent program!Art Docent Chair

ROCKWELL'S 11TH ANNUAL USED BOOK SALE
| |
Thank you students, parents, staff and community members for
making our Used Book Sale a great success. We raised an amazing $1660.10 for the library! Your generosity will help put many new books on our school library shelves for students to enjoy. This project would not have been possible without the wonderful volunteers - students, parents and staff - who helped donate, price, organize, set-up, sell and clean-up the thousands of donated books. A sincere thank you to all involved - volunteers, donors, and shoppers alike. Have fun reading and start saving your gently used books for next spring's 12th Annual Used Book Sale!
Thank you!
