RES PRINCIPAL'S BLOG - ROCKETS REPORT - Sun., Sept. 24, 2017

Dear Reading Elementary "Rockets" Families & Community Members:


This week was a week full of surprises, including an unplanned fire drill which surprised even Mrs. Knight and Mrs. Hatt.  There was a malfunction in the alarm system which set off the alarm.  It was a beautiful day, and we needed to do one in September anyway. The  alarm company came and gave the alarm a check-up and all seems fine now.  We will be having  "lock-down drill" soon.  The State mandates this drills, but its for safety sake that we do them anyway.  Please feel free to call if you ever have any concerns over a drill.  If there is a serious incident, then you would be notified with our emergency alert system.

I hope you'll join us Wed. morning to meet the new Superintendent.  Hope you'll join us!
Kudos and heartfelt thanks to:
  • All of you who have sent your forms back completed!  
  • Heather for cooking such yummy meals - we are so lucky to have her here!
  • Mrs. Hatt for helping out with the Reading Runners!
