Please join us for the All Town Elementary Band Concert conducted by our Teacher Of The Year, Mrs. Stein!
We want to give a huge shout out to Mrs. Vanty in our ECHN Family Resource Center at Maple Street! She does so much for our students and our school! She's secured funds for field trips, food, and events for our students and their families. This week our students were treated to a puppet show about bullying. The show was put on by Up In Arms, a puppet theater group out of NY.
This morning the RHS Wrestling Team came to encourage our students to do their best! Thank you to the team and their coach Mr. Gardiner!

A huge congratulations to all of our 4th and 5th grade chorus members for their amazing all town concert last Wednesday! Under the direction of Mrs. Perrett-Manly, Ms. Smallidge, Mrs. March, Mrs. Preyer, and Mr. Dunia all 5 elementary school choruses came together for the concert! Almost 300 hundred students sang beautifully together to show that music connects us all. Our students sounded wonderful and it was a testament to all of their (and their music teachers') hard work! WELL DONE!!!
