Hello parents. This is Mrs. Waters with some important health information. As a reminder, students who are sick must be symptom-free without medication for 24 hours before returning to school. We are seeing lots of sick students in the office some of whom never make it to class in the morning before getting sick. Please help us keep all our Gators healthy as we move into the holiday season by following this guideline. Please call the school if you have specific questions or concerns. Thank you.

First-grade students have been learning about traditions. A first-grade tradition here at Rockford is reading the story “A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving” and then enjoying a special snack just like the one from the story!
On Monday, the fourth grade enjoyed a Charlie Brown Thanksgiving feast!
Gratitude - we have so much to be thankful for this year.
Students in Mrs. Freeman’s 4th grade created a collaborative paper quilt with all the things we are thankful for this Thanksgiving! We added some fun Turkey handprints because I am thankful for their hands that work so hard every day!
