Here we are… near the end of 2014 already! The RCS PTO elves have been busy getting ready for a busy and exciting December! Just look at everything we’ve got coming up:

• Holiday Shop: The Holiday Shop runs from Tuesday, December 2 to Friday, December 5 this year. Each class will have a chance to visit the shop to buy presents for immediate family members. The kids absolutely love the opportunity to pick out gifts for their loved ones! If you forget to send money on your child’s assigned shopping day, don’t worry! They can still pick out gifts, and we will send a note home with the amount owed. If you have any questions about Holiday shop, contact Cinda Hansen or Jill Morino.
• Fall Fundraiser Pick Up: If you or your family members placed an order through the Great American Gift catalog in October, your items will be available for pick up on Tuesday, December 2 from 3:40-6:00 in the RCS Cafeteria.
• Since December is a short month at school, we have early deadlines for both Manna Gift Card and Market Day orders this month. Manna orders are due on Wednesday, December 10 and will be delivered on Wednesday, December 17. Market Day orders are due on Thursday, December 11 and can be picked up on Monday, December 15.
• Classroom Holiday Parties will be held on the last day of school before Winter Break, Friday, December 19. You should receive information about your student’s party from the Head Room Parent shortly, if you haven’t already.
• In addition to the above PTO-sponsored events, the 2nd Grade Musical is on Wednesday, December 17. If you have questions, please contact the office. (UPDATED WITH CORRECT DATE)

We wish everyone Happy Holidays and a Happy New Year!!
