PTA Welcome:

Dear Reedy Fork Families,

Greetings and welcome to the new school year at Reedy Fork Elementary!  I am excited and humbled to partner with you this year to continue the journey as a PTA.  As we gear up for yet another year, this year we look forward to going all out with "Ranger pride" as we help the staff prepare our students to achieve higher reading and math scores.  How can we do that you may ask?  Here is the answer:  invest your time and talents.

In this economy we know that it takes a two income family and very little time is left for other things.  This year we are not asking for a lot of time but instead support by helping us advocate for your child.  This can be done by joining PTA.  Taking the first  step down this road of success will allow us to promote and fund programs that will help your child succeed.

We will start the year off with our first fundraiser on the 29th of August.  Also our 1st general PTA meeting will be on September 26th at 5:30 pm.  Come out and meet our new principal as well as learn about the new Common Core curriculum.

I look forward to seeing what you can do to help support all our students at Reedy Fork Elementary School.  As always please feel free to  contact me at reedyforkelementaryschoolpta@gmail.com.

Sincerely,

Tomorow Betts
2013-2014 RFES PTA President

Principal Welcome:

Dear Reedy Fork Families,

Welcome to the 2013-2014 school year at Reedy Fork Elementary School. It is a pleasure to have your children in our school. We are excited about the opening of school and we look forward to working with all our families.

Our teachers and staff are committed to providing high quality educational opportunities for all students within a setting that nurtures academic, social, and emotional growth. In order for all children to succeed at the highest levels of their potential, we believe a strong relationship between the home and school is necessary. We encourage parents and community volunteers to take an active role in our school.

During this school year we have five requests of you:

1. Become as actively involved in our school as possible.
2. See that your child completes homework assignments and/or projects in a timely manner.
3. Please speak positively about your child's school and teacher. The child who believes his/her parents support the school is more likely to work hard and succeed in school.
4. If there is a problem or misunderstanding, please discuss it with your child's teacher immediately.
5. See that your child is on time to school and has good attendance.

Thank you for sending us your children. We will do our best to provide them with an excellent education, an appreciation for the environment, and enjoyment of learning. 

Sincerely,

Denise Schroeder, Principal
