Welcome Back for the 2018-2019 School Year!

Hello families,

Welcome back to a new school year. Just a reminder that while I handle the school discipline referrals, I also run the Character Counts program. When our teachers and staff see our students showing character, they have a chance to earn an ACT ticket and sticker. The tickets go to me, and every Monday I hold a drawing. The tickets that are chosen are read over our morning announcements and the students come to my office to pick a prize! This is a great motivator to students, so please continue to encourage your children to earn ACT tickets and stickers. 

Also, every month, students and teachers focus on a certain character trait. Our order for the school year is as follows:

Trustworthiness - September
Respect - October
Responsibility - November
Fairness - January
Caring - February
Citizenship - March 

Our first big character day for the school year will be Thursday, September 20th. On this day, we will hold our pancake breakfast for our character student of the month from each classroom. In addition, all students are invited to have a free dress down as long as they are wearing the character color which is BLUE. To end our day, Character Counts will hold an eegee and nacho fundraiser in the MPR after school. All proceeds go towards purchasing ACT prizes.

Thank you so much for your support! Let's have a TRRFCC school year!
