Parents,
I appreciate all of your efforts in helping us to educate your children. Education is a partnership
between home and school and we must work together in order to be successful. We are now
wrapping up our 3rd Nine Weeks. We will begin 3rd nine weeks testing the week of March 4th.
Please make sure that your child is at school daily, get plenty of rest and report to school on time
to eat breakfast. Learning can’t take place if students are not at school.
Great things are going on at RCES and our doors are always open to be of assistance to you. Thank you for allowing
us to teach your children.
One Team One Dream,
Latasha Carroll, Principal

School Expectations
Connection is Key It might seem like a never-ending battle. Figuring out how to
respond to the whining, tantrums, tears, and what can feel
like deliberate disrespect of your parenting wishes.
Often times, a child who is acting out by screaming or hit-
ting is trying to communicate that something doesn’t feel
right. They might feel disconnected and need something
from you. This is why responding in anger, yelling, grounding,
or timeout might not work the way you had hoped, especially
in the long-term; it doesn’t give them what they need.
Offering connection can open up the door for communication
about their feelings, which can lead to more understanding
for both of you. When the connection has been made, it will
be easier to go over the rules again, setting clear limits and
consequences. Remember, a child who feels connected to you
has less of a need to act out because their needs are met.
Ideas for Connecting Every child and parent craves and responds to connection in differ-
ent ways, so it’s important to find what works for your family.
• Schedule a regular hang out time (play a game, read a book, go to
the park, something you both enjoy). • Come up with a special goodbye ritual (handshake, song, certain
words, etc).
• Offer a hug, high five, fist bump, something that requires touch!
• Play in their world - get down to their level, use their toys with
them, get silly, use your imagination!
• Share your favorite game, toy, or movie from when you were a kid.
• Ask about their day and just listen.
• Recognize their feelings and be with them while they are sad/
angry/scared/excited.
“Only through our connectedness to others can we really know and
enhance the self. And only through working on the self can we begin
to enhance our connectedness to others.”― Harriet Lerner

This month we are celebrating Read
Across America. NEA ‘S Read Across
America is an annual reading program that
motivates children to read. Reading is an im-
portant factor in student achievement and
creating lifelong successful readers. Re-
search shows that by reading 20 minutes
per day students will be exposed to 1.8 mil-
lion words per year and scores in 90th per-
centile on standardized tests. Also, reading
daily increases a student‘s vocabulary usage
and it helps to develop their comprehension
skills which allow students to process text
and understand its meaning. Did you know
that if our students become great readers
they will be able to excel in every subject
area; therefore, parents, it is of great im-
portance that you join with us as a team
and encourage your child(ren) to read daily
at home. We Are Winning!!!!
We will celebrate Dr. Seuss Birthday on Fri-
day with an ice cream social for Faculty,
Staff, and Students. Happy Birthday Dr.
Seuss!!
