Our students have enjoyed the beautiful weather the first week and a half of school!
It's "Find It" Friday! If your child has lost something, it may have been placed in our Lost & Found! We keep a virtual Lost & Found on our RDES Website and try to update the pictures at least bi-weekly. You can also use this link to view our current Lost & Found items: https://sites.google.com/jessamine.kyschools.us/rdes-lost-found/home
Please consider linking your Kroger Rewards account to our school. By linking your rewards, a portion of what you already spend comes back to our PTO at no cost to you! Please view the directions in the image.
Even our 1st graders are working on their effective communication skills!
