A Message from Mrs. Reynolds

RBE Parents and Families,                                                                                                                                                                                                                            
This year our annual RBE Clean-Up Day has been combined with RBE Outdoor Classroom Week, which started on Monday, April 18th.  I apologize for not having a schedule of the Clean-Up Projects out to you sooner, but below you will find each class and their assigned projects.  The projects are happening today, April 21 and Friday, April 22.  If you are able to volunteer to tomorrow, please email me at ereynolds@cpsk12.org with the day/time.  We especially need help on Friday!  If you are able to volunteer on Friday, please sign up here: http://www.signupgenius.com/go/4090949acac2da64-clean

If you are able to help classes with mulching and have access to a wheelbarrow, wagon, shovel, rake and/or pitchfork, please bring those along with you!  Make sure the items you bring have your name on the handle.   We would love to have additional spring bulbs as well.  Other items that we need are 5 gallon buckets (kitty litter buckets would work also) and large plastic containers (like from yogurt, butter, or sour cream).  We need 6-8 buckets and at least 25 plastic containers.  These items will be kept in the garden and will be used by classes to water the garden plants. 

Thank you for your time and consideration,

Emily Reynolds, 1st grade teacher and RBE Outdoor Classroom representative

"Make the Change" Project and Fundraiser



We are participating in the "Make the Change" service project that was organized by  Myles Putnam and Mrs. Howard's class. Last week, two of her students came in to give us more information about St. Jude's and the children that they serve. We were excited to learn that the children don't have to pay for anything at this hospital because of people like us who raise money for them. 

We have set a class goal of $40 and a school goal of $1,000.  We have learned that any amount helps. Students have been bringing in money each day to add to our jar! We greatly appreciate your help in this service project!
