Spring Learning Partners Conference
Teachers are looking forward to connecting with families in March around our shared goal of supporting all students to Aim high! Spring conferences will follow the same format as the fall: families sign up for a 20 minute time slot; within that time they will have five minutes with each of the four core academic teachers. Below please find the dates for each grade level and specials. Online signups will be available in next week’s newsletter; in the meantime, please mark your calendar!

6th grade: Tue. 3/21; 8AM - 3:20PM
7th grade: Wed. 3/22; 8AM - 3:20PM
8th grade: Thur. 3/23; 8AM - 3:20PM
Specials: Fri. 3/24; 8 - 8:40AM
All staff: Wed. 3/29; 3:30 - 5:35PM 


School Unity Week
In support of our RAUC core values, the School Spirit Elective has organized a School Unity Week for March 6-10. They thought it would be fun to break up the long weeks between vacations with some theme days to help students express unity. They have created flyers and are making announcements this week to generate spirit! Thanks to guidance counselor Shanika Boadu for guiding this group!

The daily themes are as follows:
3/6 Monday Pajama Day
3/7 Twin Tuesday
3/8 Wednesday Hat Day
3/9 Thursday Sports Day
3/10 Fancy Friday
