Principal Message

Greetings Rugel Family,

We are so excited for Parent Conferences this week! We can’t wait to team up with you to help your child shine.

This month, we’re also celebrating Hispanic Heritage Month with all our students. At our school, we follow the CRASH characteristics, and the "R" stands for Respecting all people and perspectives. We are excited to learn more about Hispanic culture and all the amazing things it has brought to our world.

We would love volunteers to help make our celebration extra special. Thank you for being such an important part of our school family!

One Family One CRASH!

Ms. Griffin

Attendance Matters!

Every day counts when it comes to your child’s success. Studies show that students who attend school regularly are more likely to read at grade level and graduate on time!

Just missing 2 days a month can add up to a month of lost learning over the year. Let’s work together to build strong habits — make sure your child is at school every day and on time. We’re here to support you every step of the way!"

We are providing student incentives for attendance! Students can earn prizes for just simply being at school. Help your student earn these rewards.

Hispanic Heritage Festival- Thursday October 2nd

Right now, we’re looking for volunteers for our Hispanic Heritage Festival happening on October 2!

When more parents get involved, our whole community grows stronger. We invite you to sign up and be a part of something meaningful — your time truly makes a difference.

We can’t do this without you — our programs thrive when families come together. Volunteering isn’t about doing it all; it’s about each of us doing what we can.
