Grades 3-7 learned about Maria Scrivan’s writing and illustrating process for the graphic novel series Nat Enough. We were lucky enough to celebrate the book series’ 5th installment on the day it was published. Students are still able to order any of the books in the series with an author visit discount from the Book Stall. Books will be signed by the author and delivered to Rondout.
Be sure to order using the book order link. https://www.thebookstall.com/graphic-novelist-maria-scrivan-visited-chicago-area-schools
Please remind your students to stop by the lost and found. All items will be donated over spring break.
The school store is open next week. The shopping schedule is as follows. Tuesday grades K & 4th, Wednesday grades 2nd - 3rd, and upper school during lunch, and Thursday grades 5th and 1st. The maximum amount students can spend is $5.00.

Hi Families! We are half-way through our Kids Heart Challenge Adventure, and if you haven’t already, the time is now to join the celebration! CLICK BELOW to sign up! Our goal is to have 100% of our students register for Kids Heart Challenge and learn about Hands-Only CPR through Finn’s Mission. Once you are signed up, become a LIFESAVER and help your student complete Finn’s Mission. In doing so, you and your family will learn Hands-Only CPR and the warning signs of a stroke. Then, you’ll earn your very own Finn’s Lifesaver Award! CONGRATULATIONS to the families who have already completed Finn’s Mission! https://www2.heart.org/site/TR?pg=company&fr_id=9736&company_id=441548

Rondout will be back in school tomorrow January 17th. The temperatures are still expected to be cold but less extreme than these past few days with a “warm-up” forecast beginning at the end of the wind chill advisory period at 9 a.m. tomorrow. Please ensure your child is wearing adequate outerwear such as coats, hats, gloves etc. as the cold temperatures dictate appropriate dress.
