Preparing for the 50th Celebration and Writing for Board appreciation Week

If it is January then we must be doing something to thank the SBISD Board of Trustees!  After years of videos, we are trying something different - students writing poetry. Yesterday I worked with a group of second grade students.  They did an outstanding job.  As we shared the writing, a big "AHA" hit me.  Not only could this writing be a gift for the school board, but also a great piece to share for our 50th!  The students are sharing what RCE means to them. The poems have been most enlightening as to what means the most to the students at RCE.  Sharing this writing lesson has changed my vision for another project needed for the PTA.  I'm so glad our students have ideas and help shape the way we do things at RCE.
