We are looking forward to our Christmas Program (grades K-2) on Dec. 5 at 6 p.m. Gym doors will open at 5:30 but students must stay with parents in the gym until 5:45 when teachers will gather their students in the gym and take them to their classes. Parents, please remain in the gym. You will have an opportunity following the program to pick your child up at their classroom and take pictures in the hallways if you want.

We had a very busy two days this week at Roachdale Elementary School!
We have had a great time roller skating. Thank you Mr. McMurtry for bringing the skates to our school each year. Yesterday was another great day with our Student Appreciation Day. We appreciate each and every student and family at our school. Wishing all of our families, including our staff families, a very Happy Thanksgiving!

We had so much fun at our STEM Family Night on Tues. Oct. 24. Students made marble mazes, designed the tallest free standing tower out of pipe cleaners, explored some stem kits, and participated in a Lego challenge. Thank you to all of our helpers at the event! We had Ivy League Kids (our before/after school program), Mrs. McVay (our STEM and Media Center Assistant) and 5th grade students - Aubrey McVay, Colin O'Donnell, and Paige Livingston. Be watching for our next family night event scheduled for Jan. 25.
