Order forms will go home each month. This month’s due date is August 29th.
Volunteer Training
Georgia law regarding volunteers in non-profit organizations establishes that all volunteers are now mandated reporters. In order for all volunteers to understand the law and know the reporting protocols, volunteer training regarding the new mandated reporter law will be provided. Below are the dates for the RBES volunteer training. If you plan to volunteer or visit in a classroom (this includes attending class parties, Field Day, working with students, etc.), you should attend one of the dates below.
August 15th @ 7:00 PM
August 17th @ 7:00 PM
August 24th @ 8:45 AM
We will need ALL volunteers to attend one of the training options in order for everyone to be able to continue to serve as a volunteer. Please know we appreciate you, your time, and commitment to RBES.
First Grade Curriculum Night
Please join the first grade team on Thursday, August 17th from 6:00-7:00PM in the RBES Media Center to learn all you need to know about first grade! We will inform you of curriculum, expectations, etc., as well as answer any questions you may have. Mrs. Mason will also be offering a volunteer training session immediately following Curriculum Night, if you would like to get involved at RBES!
Snack Reminders
-Please send a healthy snack {low in sugar} to school with your child every day.
