Rescue Elementary School

Dear Rescue Families,

 

We’re excited to welcome everyone back to campus next month as we kick off a brand-new school year. Our teachers and staff have been working hard to prepare classrooms, plan engaging lessons, and create a warm, welcoming environment for all students. We’re looking forward to reconnecting with familiar faces and getting to know our new families. It’s going to be a great year filled with learning, growth, and memorable experiences!

 

With our multipurpose room remodel complete, we’re looking forward to assemblies, plays, and performances throughout the school year. The solar project is moving along, and the fences should be removed by the time school begins. I know we are all eager to start the year without construction projects.

 

This year, we’ve had minimal changes to our teaching staff. Mrs. Garcia has moved from kindergarten to 4th grade. Mrs. Polnasek has moved from a part-time position in 2nd grade to join our kindergarten team as a full-time teacher. Mrs. Maurer has moved from 3rd grade into a 4th grade classroom. You’ll see familiar faces in new places this year!

 

We will be using the Parent Portal (Aeries) to notify families of their child’s class assignment for the 2025–26 school year. In the spirit of protecting confidentiality, class assignments will be available to parents through their Parent Portal account on August 5th after 4:00 p.m. If you have any questions, please contact the office.

 

Our first day of school is Wednesday, August 6th. Please refer to the bell schedule below for your child’s designated start time. Back-to-School Night is scheduled for Thursday, August 7th, for 1st–5th grades. The evening will be staggered to accommodate parking and families with multiple siblings. More information about Back-to-School Night is included below. TK Back-to-School night will be on Wednesday, August 13th, from 5:00–6:00 p.m., and Kindergarten Orientation will be held in the MP room on Tuesday, August 5th, from 9:00–10:00 a.m.

 

As your principal, I enjoy being on campus with the students and engaging with families. Please take the opportunity to introduce yourself as we start the new school year. I look forward to a year of positivity and new beginnings as we launch the 2025–26 school year at Rescue Elementary.
