It was another busy week here at the Roderick School. Please take a few minutes to read about the happenings at the school.
Last April the students
at Roderick School entered poems in a contest sponsored by the National Schools
Project. There were 311 Roderick students whose poems were chosen for publication by The
Young American Poetry Digest. This contest is designed to share our youth's
talents with others and to provide a national publishing opportunity for
young poets. The poems were selected by a panel of educators who evaluated
the overall quality of the poem based on student's age and grade level.
As one of the schools
with the highest number of poems published, Roderick School was recently
presented with a $100.00 check.
Congratulations to this week's Positive Referral's! These students were recognized for being helpful, supportive, and considerate. Thank you for making our school a better place! We are proud of you!
It was another great Red Sox School Spirit Day on Wednesday!

Hopefully, the weather will cooperate next Thursday and the kids will

very important tips on Halloween safety. I wanted to share it with all of you. Happy Halloween!
