Hello! This is Ms. McGrath contacting you on Tuesday,
November 10th with a few messages for Raiders and their families.
A few reminders for families:
1.
Tomorrow, Wednesday, November 11th, is
Remembrance Day and all schools in New Brunswick are closed to mark the day.
2.
Retakes of school pictures were completed on
Monday. All picture orders must now be returned to the school no later than Monday, November 16th. After
that date, all orders, from either school picture day or retake day, must be
sent directly to Photography Flewwelling.
3.
Families are reminded that school begins at 8:40
each morning. Students arriving after that time are late and must sign in at
the main office. Repeated instances of tardiness will followed up by Admin as
per the Education Act.
4.
Please register your child on School Messenger.
This will allow you to enter illness or other absences at school. Entering this
information will also prevent absence messages being sent out to your phone
when your child is ill or absent for any other reason.
Messages to pick-up students during the
school day should still be sent directly to the school office.
5.
The school district has decided that Parent/Teacher
meetings will be virtual (Microsoft TEAMS or by phone) this year. Stay tuned
for more information soon!
6.

7. Have you heard of
211?
As Canada navigates the second wave of
COVID-19, people are still seeking support and unsure where to turn. For help
accessing food, mental health supports, or other non-emergency programs and
services in our community, simply dial 2-1-1. Whether it is a senior
feeling isolated or anxious about getting their basic necessities, or an
individual uncertain about whether there are assistance programs for which they
are eligible, or a parent worried about their child’s mental health, help
starts with 211.
As always, this message and other
important info is posted on our website at rvms.nbed.nb.ca. We also post
updates on Twitter @RVMiddle.
