February 12th-16th is Kindness Week! Students will be participating in acts of kindness within their class, the school, and the community. To kick-off Kindness Week, all students and staff are invited to wear shirts that promote kindness on Monday, February 12th.


RDES students and families are so incredibly lucky to have such incredible individuals supporting them. At Rosenwald-Dunbar we truly have the absolute best counselors and Family Resource Coordinator anywhere. We are celebrating Mrs. Kim Watkins, Mr. George Boyd IV, and Mrs. Emily Andrews this week. The care and selflessness these individuals show to our students, as well as families, is remarkable.
