Hello Roderick Community,

Although the wet ground forced us inside this morning for our Memorial Day assembly, the students did a remarkable job.  Each grade level presented a song or poem, the Advanced Band played the Star Spangled Banner, Grade 6 student Taylor recited the Gettysburg Address, Ryan (Grade 6) and Tiger (Grade 6) played Taps.  All of the Roderick students were terrific.

 

May is National Tourette Syndrome Awareness Month.  Students in Mrs. Farrell's class celebrated teal Tuesday and made an announcement on the PA. 

Our fifth graders were fantastic on Thursday night as they performed "The Great Outdoors" for the Grade 5 Gym Show.  The routines, the music, and the props were all truly amazing!  Congratulations to all of our fifth graders and physical education teachers Mr. Moon and Mr. Maguire for their spectacular performance.

 

Please come and join us for our final Principals' Coffee on Friday, May 30th in the Vogel Auditorium.  Superintendent Dr. Christopher Martes will be presenting the budget forecast for the 2014 -2015 school year.  The meeting will begin at 8:30 AM.  Please feel free to bring younger children if you are stuck for daycare.  


Mrs. Haughey's class and Mrs. Curtin's class worked with shake tables in an effort to create
 earthquake resistant buildings.  We have some talented architects!

Congratulations to this week's Positive Referral recipients.  These students were recognized for embodying or school's Core Values.  We are very proud of you!
