School pictures are coming up on Thursday (10/21)!
Our 1st graders really loved collaborating with their classmates on their “how-to” writing pieces! @romecityschools
As teachers and students are enjoying a much deserved Fall Break, our custodial and facilities teams have been hard at work! Our gym upgrades are finished, our awning for the new learning cottages is nearing completion, and our building has never been cleaner! @romecityschools
Fall Break is a great time to read! Use our free online library called Sora tinyurl.com/WEEsora or check these ebooks that are free through the public library! All you need is your library card: https://georgialibraries.org/ereadkids/ @RomeCitySchools
Our West End artists are showing off their talents at the fair this week! @romecityschools
Our teachers and students are better than a pot full of gold any day!!
Are you reading for our PTO Fall Festival? Plan to join us on Thursday, Oct. 21st from 5-7 pm for fun, fellowship, and enjoy the beautiful fall weather! Tickets for children are $4 in advance and $5 at the gate. Adults are free. All students should be accompanied by an adult.
Our 2nd graders learned about the key elements of stories as they explained the beginning, climax, solution, and character’s feelings of the book they read in their group. They expanded on these concepts as they wrote on their “pizza slices”! @romecityschools
Our Pre-K classes continued the celebration of #GaPreKWeek today with a live jam session with Coy Bowles from the Zac Brown Band (musician)! He read his new book (Can You Touch a Color?), and all of our students received their own copy of it! #WEEloveReading @romecityschools
West End is “Wild About Reading”! We are encouraging students to read 20 minutes every night so they can earn one of these amazing shirts! #WEEloveReading @romecityschools
Patricia Studdard and Maxine Strickland have been faithfully serving our students and families as crossing guards for 20 years this week! West End and our PTO honored these amazing ladies for their devotion! Thank you for keeping us safe! #OurCrossingGuardsRock @romecityschools
West End is “crazy” about Pre-K!! Research has shown that early childhood experiences and education shape the brain. One of the many reasons that quality early learning is essential for young children. #GaPreKWeek. @romecityschools
Don't Forget:
Thursday and Friday, October 7 and 8, will be Flexible Learning Days for ALL of Rome City Schools!
Reminder: Fall Break is October 11-15.
Quality early learning for young children improves third grade reading proficiency and increases high school graduation rates. One of the many reasons we support #GaPreKWeek @romecityschools
Due to wet field conditions and the likelihood of rain tomorrow, we will postpone the 3rd-grade performance/ PTO meeting originally scheduled for tomorrow night until Tuesday, Oct. 26th (3 weeks from tomorrow). It will still be at the same time - 6 pm. @romecityschools
