Happy Birthday over the weekend to: Kei’Mareya Arms, Victoria Arthur, Zaryn Woods, Braden Curtis, Sophia Ruiz, Emery Decker, Car’Dan Stanley, Mrs. Bartlett, and Mrs. Smith

No birthdays today!

The Kindness Challenge is here! Teachers and Students: RAK is sponsoring a Kindness Challenge for the remainder of the school year (this is similar to the Movement Challenge from earlier this year). Posters are hanging in each wing of the building.

Teachers - you have stickers in your mailbox, and we are asking you to put a sticker on the grade level Kindness Challenge Poster when you see “Kindness” in your classroom. We will announce the grade that has the most stickers on the last day of school.

For all 5th through 7th-grade boys and girls interested in running cross country in the fall, there will be a meeting this Thursday, May 28, at 2:00 pm in the cafeteria. 

Attention 8th graders, information about next fall's play auditions is available in the main office. Please pick up an info sheet if you may be interested in participating in the high school fall play.  

At this time, all 6th, 7th, & 8th grade girls interested in playing basketball next season, please report to the cafeteria after announcements for a short informational meeting with Coach Casselman.
