Book Fair Diner: All You Can Read!
Are you hungry for a good book? We'll have books for all tastes at our Spring Book Fair Diner! You can choose from a great selection of picture books, bestsellers, chapter books, mystery, humor, and more. What else is on the menu? We also have a great family event planned during our Winter Carnival on March 5th beginning at 5:00 p.m. This sounds like a recipe for fun! Our Book Fair Diner will run March 5th - 11th at RES. I can't wait to dig in! Be sure to visit our Book Fair website at http://bookfairs.scholastic.com/bookfairs/cptoolkit/publish/reidsvilleelementary
Information for Parents!!
After School Program
Reidsville Elementary School will not offer the After School Program this year, 2010. Due to limited funding for these services, (including teacher and paraprofessional salaries as well as transportation costs) the program will not be cost effective at this time. Should additional funding become available, we will purchase educational materials that will support instruction across grade levels and content areas. Please encourage your child to read, practice math facts and do their homework each night as we partner to get students ready for the CRCT in April.
We all shop for groceries, sometimes two or three times a week –- or more. Now turn those shopping trips into easy cash for Reidsville Elementary School, and encourage friends to do the same! Just look for the Box Tops logo on hundreds of products like Cheerios®, Hamburger Helper® and Kleenex®, in almost every aisle of the store. All you need to do is clip and send them to your child's homeroom teacher —- each one is worth 10¢ for your school. Visit this link to learn more:
