RAUC Core Values Update
Thanks to parents Paul Toner and Jennifer Retsinas for volunteering their time last Wednesday evening to go over parent surveys on RAUC Core Values. They identified 4 core values that capture parent ideas. We now move to our final stage in the process. Paul and Jennifer will join with representatives from students and staff on Wednesday 10/26 to identify 3-4 core values that capture the ideas of our entire school community. Stay tuned for the final results!
