REMINDERS:
Mr. Paul
As some of you may
know, Mr. Paul is out on medical leave for approximately 8 weeks. A fourth grade student and his family have
decorated and donated boxes for students and families to drop off well wishes. We have a box in our library hallway for
students and classes to drop off cards during the day, and another box in our
main office for parents to drop off cards, gifts, etc. in a more secure
location. I know Mr. Paul appreciates
the outpouring of support that he has received so far from our staff and families!
Food Drive – October 22 – November 16
The Bedford Community Food Pantry is a
valuable resource for those in our community who are facing hunger
or food insecurity. The Food Pantry is
a 501(c)3 organization that is a well-coordinated effort between 5 area
churches, local organizations, including the Bedford Lion's Club and the Boy
Scouts, and individuals and families in Bedford.
They are always in need of THESE
FOOD ITEMS. At RBS, we would like to
make a concerted effort to collect these items for our food drive. If you are able to make a donation, I know
the Food Pantry would GREATLY appreciate it!
*Donations of cash are also welcomed in
order to purchase food from the NH Food Bank (checks made
out to Bedford Community Food Pantry).
On Tuesday,
November 20th the boxes will be donated as a contribution from
the Riddle Brook School community.
Therefore, we will need all donations by Friday, November 16th. Our Principal’s
Advisory Group will be organizing and packing the donations on Monday, November 19th.
