Last Week Before the
BreakIt’s
the final week before the break! This weekend gave us a teaser of snow and just
invigorated the itch for the holidays. But before we go careening out the doors
this coming Friday, there are lots of happenings at Russellville Junior and
Senior High School! Here is hoping that each and every one of our Panther
Family finishes strong and has a blessed week!
English as a Second
Language (ESL) Exiting Awards this Week
On Friday, at 1:45
in the de Graffenried Auditorium, under the direction of ESL teacher Griselda Vargas, five students will exit the ESL program for Russellville HS. These
students have displayed a mastery of the English language to such a degree that
they are no longer in need of the full services of the ESL program from RISD.
The tremendous accomplishment of these students is certainly cause to celebrate
as each of these students are now considered fully bilingual, a life skill that
firmly sets them in a position for success in today’s multicultural
professional job market.
Christmas Band Concert on
Tuesday of this Week
Come
join us as we celebrate the holidays with music from our talented middle and
high school band members. On Tuesday
evening at 7pm in the de Graffenried Auditorium, parents, students, and
community members can come enjoy the holiday concert under the direction of
Band Director Brian Brown and
Assistant Director Trevor Cardwell.
ASVAB Results
Informational Meeting
On
Wednesday of this week, Mr. Booth
will meet with all students who took the ASVAB. The meeting will be led by SGT.
Gilbert who will help students who took the test to better understand the
implications of their scores.
Christmas Lunch with
Students this Week
On
Thursday of this week, Parents will
have the opportunity to come in and eat lunch with their child. Parents should
have received a RSVP card in the mail from the school that could be returned.
Parents and students will get to enjoy the day’s lunch in the HS foyer as well
as enjoying the services of the Panther Catering class under the direction of
Family and Consumer Sciences teacher Ashley
McGinnis.
Middle School Parent
teacher Conferences this Week!
On
Wednesday of this week, parents of
Middle School students may sign up to meet with whole grade teams. Parents will
