RBS Principal’s
Notes
January 3, 2020
Welcome back, and
Happy 2020! I hope everyone had a great
break and was able to spend some much-deserved downtime with family and
friends! It always seems to me that the
school year flies by after the New Year.
IN THE NEWS:
Morning Drop Off
As a reminder, children should not be walking alone from Visitor Parking
into the building. As you can imagine, traffic
in our parking lot is very busy in the morning, and it is a safety hazard for
students to be walking alone. Please
park and walk your child into the building.
You will also need to sign your child in at the office. Thank you!
Snow Day
Lunch Info./Announcements
I want to let
parents know how the district handles the hot lunch menu following a snow day. There
is no rule of thumb when determining the lunch menu on the day following a snow
day as the menu for that day is dependent upon what was on the menu the day of
the snow day, what prep the kitchen had to do, and what fresh produce the
kitchen had ordered. Therefore, our district’s Food Service Director
(Emily Murphy) provides an announcement on the SAU’s website (www.sau25.net) in
the District News box, which will detail, by school, what the
hot lunch offering will be the day following the snow day. This
information will be available the day of the snow day.
Food Pantry
RBS is working
with the Bedford Food Pantry to help
collect food items that are most needed by families. Every
other month we will be collecting 1 food item. For the month of January, that item is SINGLE
SERVE JUICE. If you are able, please bring in single serve juice
until Friday, January 24th. We will have a box for donations
in the office hallway outside of the library. Thank you so much for
supporting this very worthy cause, which supports Bedford families.
