Message from Mrs. Reams
Randolph Families,
Thank you to all of our 4th and 5th grade families who volunteered their time this past Friday to make our 2nd annual "Task Card Tailgate" a HUGE success.
Congratulations to the following roadrunners for being selected as winners in their categories for the Fire Safety Poster making contest. They were all honored publicly last weekend. Way to go Caeson, Lilah, Alexandra and Alex!!!
Would you like an October break added to our GCPS calendar? If selected as the calendar option moving forward, an intersession option would be available to students that week, but not required. Please take a look at both options (attached below) and share your feedback here: https://forms.gle/zdHVc4Nc6SqSzmik9
