Congratulations on this week's Raptor Shout-Outs!

Thank you to everyone who came out to our Rhodes Spirit Night at Raising Canes! It was a great night seeing our Raptors and their families.

In Mrs. Collins’ IRL students are learning about qualities in an ideal teammate by self reflecting and working in teams to come up with a blueprint to build a bridge using the materials given. Way to collaborate, Raptors!

Tomorrow is a Spirit Day! We are encouraging students who have a House shirt to wear them because everyone will find their Houses during our Raptor Time House Reveal event!

Remember that jeans can not have rips, holes, or tears.

We look forward to seeing our Raptors at Raising Canes tonight! Our Rhodes staff will be there around 5:00pm. Make sure to take a picture with your Cane's and submit using this Google Form to earn House Points (if you find out your House tomorrow, we ​will go in and get your House points later!)

Today, Mrs. Limerick's class utilized their map skills and created a "Me Island". What a fun way to internalize those skills! Way to go, Raptors!

Check out our Raptors in action! 5th grade students in Ms. Sneed's STEM class participated in a paper chain challenge to encourage students to collaborate and work together as a team. Way to go, Raptors!

Our first Rhodes Spirit Night is coming soon at Raising Canes!!! Plan to get some yummy food and see your Rhodes Staff on 8/29!

In IRL, students did a Get To Know You Bingo card. Our Raptors are getting to know their classmates and building relationships with each other. They are finding out what they have in common with one another, plus sharing things that they learn that they didn’t know about each other. Great work at setting the foundation for an amazing year, Raptors!

Check your ParentSquare for the Raptor Report!

Fiction Friday! Ms. Blain’s students working hard making predictions, writing summaries, and identifying elements of fiction with partners. Way to go, Raptors!

Raptors in Ms.Young’s RLA class successfully completed a matching activity, sorting literary genres with their corresponding definitions, deepening their understanding of each category. Awesome work, Raptors!
