Yesterday, the Sullivan sisters, Alexa (Grade 2) and Avery (Grade 4), visited the Board of Education offices to record the inclement weather announcements for the 2024-2025 school year. The lucky winners of the RPEF raffle did a great recording their extremely cute early dismissal, delayed opening, and snow day announcements! ☃
How are you celebrating Inclusive Schools Week? At RHS, Dr. Thumm lead our first Inclusivity Summit where representatives of extracurricular clubs came together to discuss the inclusive practices we already have in place and brainstorm ways we can continue to create a culture and community that is celebratory of all individuals. The summit concluded in taking a pledge to be kind, empathetic individuals who welcome everyone despite our differences. We can't wait to hang up this banner at RHS as a reminder of what we stand for. Be on the lookout for Best Buddies over the next few weeks during lunch so YOU can also take the pledge and sign your name.
For Inclusive Schools Week, Angus and Erin from RHS worked together to read a book about authenticity to Tisdale students. Angus was able to use his communication device to introduce himself and share what makes him unique and to help him read clearly to the class. The class then shared and wrote about what makes each one of them unique. The finished products will be placed on Tisdale's wall of inclusion. We feel so fortunate to have been a part of this very special read aloud. Thank you, Tisdale and Ms. Cedola for including us 📚 💙 💛!
AP Environmental Science students gathered human survivorship data from Union Cemetery yesterday. They will use the data collected to analyze survivorship trends from Pre-1900 to Post-1900. This field trip also had students uncover information about local historical figures such as John Y. Dater and Peter Ramsey.
