PRINCIPAL'S NOTE<br />
The month of May is closing and activities at the<br />
school in full swing! Remember, despite the warm<br />
weather we do have a dress code. Also, it is the<br />
time of year we should remember sun screen,<br />
especially on school outings. The nice weather<br />
also inspires students with a lot of energy. We<br />
want to remind them to keep their energy positive<br />
and at all times keep their hands and feet to<br />
themselves to be safe and avoid<br />
misunderstandings. Thanks!<br />

Raccoons (Strong Start)<br />
A reminder to parents of children from 0-5 years<br />
old! “Raccoons” Strong Start is a program offered<br />
free to parents at <strong>Raft</strong> <strong>River</strong> <strong>Elementary</strong> School<br />
daily from 8:45am to 11:45am. This program<br />
helps teach children using play based education.<br />
This is not a daycare so parents are expected to<br />
attend with their children and encouraged to<br />
participate in the activities. Learn along with your<br />
child and help them get a head start before they<br />
begin formal school!<br />
