Attention 5th grade parents!

Can you believe our babies will be graduating from elementary school in a few short months?!?! Where has the time gone? For our 5th grade graduation we want to create something special for the students and you parents to keep. We want to create a video of our kids and we can’t do it without you!

So, it’s time to start going through your pictures & submitting them for the 5th grade graduation video. We are looking for pictures featuring two or more students from kindergarten (2017) through 5th grade (2022) at Haggar activities such as classroom parties, field trips, field day, fall festival, spring fling, first/last day of school, recess, PTA events, etc. If it has 5th graders doing Haggar things through the years, we want it! No baby pictures, individual pictures or birthday parties please.

Please upload all your photos to our 5th Grade Photos Dropbox HERE. If you are having issues uploading please contact 5thgradevideo@rmhpta.org

We will be collecting photos through April 15th so start looking through your old pictures and uploading now. We want all kids to be part of the video so please take the time to add something! Please label the photo with the grade level it was taken- I.e., kinder, first, second, etc.

Here is the dropbox link again:

Can’t wait to see all the pictures come through,

Your 5th Grade Graduation Committee

PS- If you want to help the graduation committee please let your teacher know!

Hey parents!

This year we have decided to make a dedication video to play at our end of the year assembly on the last day of school. We are trying something new and creating a “Lip Dub video” where all students and staff members will be able to participate. We will be recording this school wide video on April 27th and have requested that each grade level wear a specific color. More details on that to follow. If you would not like your child participate and be recorded please let us know. This video will be shared on our schools Facebook page. We are so excited and know it will turn out great!

The PTA is excited to relaunch our Spring Auction and would love your help to build the very best baskets. Each grade level has a theme, but you are welcome to donate towards any of the themes or even provide an item/service from your own business to be included. Learn more at: www.rmhpta.org/auction.

Bring any and all items to the school and place them in the Auction bin inside the main entrance. All items need to be received by next Friday, 4/8. If you have any questions at all or would like to send an electronic gift certificate, please email: auction@rmhpta.org

Mark your calendars for the first ever adults only auction party taking place on Saturday, May 14 from 6-9pm at Coffee House Cafe. Tickets will be for sale when the auction goes live online 4/29.

Our district is asking that ALL parents fill this out, whether they are staying or leaving PISD. Please fill out this form as soon as possible. Please contact Stacey Moseley (stacey.moseley@pisd.edu) with questions.

Our RMH staff operates according to our agreed upon Staff Relationship Agreement, and many of our classrooms have them as well. Thank you to our SBIC members who collaborated to create a Staff & Community Relationship Agreement. We hope you will keep these agreements in mind when communicating with RMH staff, and we commit to doing the same in an effort to always make the best decisions for our students.
