Dear RCSD Community,
Students were off today for Superintendent’s Conference Day, but RCSD teachers and staff were busy taking courses on critical thinking, innovative classroom design, and social-emotional learning (SEL). We had a keynote presentation from Dr. Robert Dillon who has been working with groups of teachers on re-imagining their learning spaces to foster deeper learning. Workshop sessions throughout the day were facilitated by our instructional coaches, teachers, and administrators. It was an engaging and productive day of learning.
Dear RCSD Community,
This weekend marks daylight savings time when clocks move forward one hour. I much prefer the fall when we gain an extra hour of sleep but, alas, we will all be springing our clocks ahead by one hour this Saturday night.
As a reminder, next Friday, March 15, is a Superintendent’s Conference Day. There is no school for students that day, but RCSD teachers and staff will be hard at work taking courses on critical thinking.
Dear RCSD Community,
I hope everyone had a wonderful relaxing winter recess. Welcome, March! Let’s hope the adage of “in like a lion, out like a lamb” holds true. There has been some seriously variable weather this week. Speaking of which…
Snow Day Giveback?
We’ve been fielding some questions about the remaining snow/emergency day. I am not ready to “give back” our last day, given the varied weather conditions and the fact that March sometimes has surprises in store. Due to the two snow days we have already had, we will have school on Tuesday, May 28, and Friday, May 24. The one day still in play is April 1, which is the Monday after the spring break.
