We are excited to see you tomorrow, Thursday, August 31, for open house. 1 pm - 6:30 pm. Please enter at Door 1. Door prizes ready for tomorrow. You are entered based on registering online (new families, including Kindergarten, likely register on paper). We will have the commons set up to help you register and give you a ticket per K-5 RLEC student when done. If you registered online already at school or from home, visit the main office to verify and they will give you a door prize ticket after verification. Please consider registering online from home before coming! It will save you time.

***VERY IMPORTANT: Every student will bring home a letter on Tuesday, June 20. ***
The letter shares whether or not they qualify for the June 22 trip to the trampoline park in Grand Forks, ND. If they do or MAY qualify, a waiver from the park is attached. If we do not receive the waiver, students will not be able to attend. It is key that we have the waivers signed and returned ASAP.
If your child has not had PERFECT attendance (this means here all 12 days so far for the entire time, not arriving late or leaving early), they may still qualify for the trip IF THEY COME TO SCHOOL June 20 & 21. The June 20 note home details everything.
If you want to ask about eligibility, you may text Principal Amberg, anytime from now until the end of the day June 20. Her cell is 5 5 6 * * * 8 7 4 2. Don't forget the area code :)
We have had such a fun time with our students. We hope they enjoyed the experiences so far. We have two more groups going to the Red Lake Buffalo Farm this week (June 20 or 21).
RLEC Summer School Students took a trip to the buffalo farm to visit! Here are some photos from their trip.
Here is the school supply list for RLEC students for the '23-'24 school year! Start gathering everything up little by little, so you can ensure your student is ready to go!
