February 22

Pink Shirt Day!

Hello ROS families. On Thursday, February 28th, we will be recognizing Pink Shirt Day. It is a day where we encourage everyone to practice kindness and wear pink to symbolize that we do not tolerate bullying. Throughout the day, students will participate in activities that inspire acceptance, care for others and themselves and will conclude with a school wide assembly. To show support, students are encouraged to wear pink or their blue ROS shirts.

Thank you so much,
Circle of courage committee

In inquiry we discovered that the animal adaptation of increased layers of blubber helps animals stay warm in the arctic and in the ocean.  We also completed our Aurora Borealis sculptures today.  A few are on display in the main office. 


  

Next week we have inline skating on Tuesday and on Wednesday.  Please remember to bring your helmets if you have one.
