Sargeant Families Blog - Summer Break

It's hard to believe that it's May 31st and we are done with the school year.  Thank you for sharing your children with us this year.  We have enjoyed each and every one of them.  Along with the teachers, I have watched them grow over the year and I am proud of them.  I wish our students moving on to middle school the best of luck.  Those of you that are moving to other schools, I will miss you.  For those of you returning, I can't wait to see you in August!  Please take time this summer to have fun with your family: have them explore, create, design, build, and continue reading.  😍📚 I have included a few reading ideas on this blog post for you to check out if you are interested.  Reading is something important to continue even when not in school.  You can mix it up and read to your kids or have them read alone (or both!).  If you're looking for books, there is an online resource below, but the Maidu library is also a great free resource.  Every Friday we will also be posting read alouds by guest readers on Sargeant's Facebook account.  Check them out as much as you want!

See you all in August. 

~ Principal Peck 

Registration for Next Year

If you have not registered online for next school year, please do so as soon as possible.  All students need to be registered online to start next school year.  If you need registration support over the summer, there is one last day at the district office on June 6th from 5:00-8:00.  The school office will also be open Monday, June 3rd if you need help. 

Summer Reading with EPIC

Summer Reading
Looking for a creative way to engage in reading this summer?  Check out the BINGO form below.

EduTyping

As part of the Roseville City School District Digital Literacy plan, all students in grades 1-4 were given access this school year to a typing program called EduTyping.  The goal of this program is to help students improve their typing fluency. The program introduces students to typing using a row-by-row method with high frequency and sight words integrated throughout to reinforce reading comprehension.

We wanted to let you know that current 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th-grade RCSD students will have access to EduTyping over the summer for any students that would like to continue using this program.  Students in grades 1-4 in the 2019-2020 school year will have access all next year as well. Please see these instructions below on how students can log onto EduTyping at home.

APEX

Thank you for all the work you are doing to help your child collect pledges.  The money raised will go towards supporting reading with books for classroom libraries and revamping the seating in our school library. The run is this Wednesday.  We are watching the weather day by day and hoping it doesn't rain.  We will communicate with you if there are any changes, but the run will still be on Wednesday.  If raining, we will have to move it into the multi.  If the fields are too wet, we may be running o the blacktop.  We will be sure to let you and the students know. 

Field Day

We are getting excited about our 23rd Annual Sargeant Field Day this Friday from 9:30 - 11:45.  We will need volunteers to help with this fun event from 8:45 - 1:00 (the BBQ volunteers stay later).  Please check out the following link if you are interested in volunteering: Field Day - Volunteers Needed .  We still need a few more to make this event a success. 

Moving Up Walk  - Celebrating Our 5th Graders

On the last day of school, May 30 at 1:20, we will be celebrating our 5th graders who will be moving on to middle school in our second annual Moving Up Walk.  This is a brief ceremony where all of our students will gather by grade level in a rectangle out on the primary playground. The 5th graders will walk out to music and walk around the other students as we cheer them on and celebrate them as they say good-bye to elementary school.  They will end in the center of all the students and then each grade level will "move up" in line to their next grade level. 5th grade parents are welcome to attend to cheer for your child.

Thank you to PTC and all of the families who helped out with Staff Appreciation Week. We were spoiled all week long! We are thankful to work at a school with such supportive families. We appreciate you!

 This year, Apex focuses on being STRONG as a group and valuing each other’s differences. The interactive lessons discuss the important role we each play in the world, and also promotes the idea that we’re always stronger together!

Connect your child to potential sponsors and help acquire pledges for the number of laps they will run on May 22nd - Fun Run day. Family and friends anywhere in the world can support our school. This year the funds will go to supporting classroom libraries as well a our current library - we are hoping to give it a makeover with comfortable seating for the kids to use while reading books.

All students will also receive their own pledge kit with an individual access code that allows you to enter pledges online.

During the Apex Fun Run program, students are challenged to get pledges for the laps they will run on Fun Run day to help our school.

Students will run for 30 minutes and will run an average of 26-26 laps around the Apex Raceway. Maximum amount of laps is 36 and each lap is 1/16th of a mile. Through Apex’s online pledging system, sponsors can pledge $1/lap, $2/lap, $5/lap, or any other amount for students and can pledge from anywhere in the world!

For those of you new to Sargeant, here is an informational video from Apex:
