Girls on the Run

We are so excited to offer Girls On the Run this year!  This is a wonderful opportunity for girls in grades 3-5 to have fun, make friends, increase their physical activity levels and learn important life skills.  The program runs for 10 weeks and will start in March.  During this time they will work with and learn from our Sargeant coaches (two of our fabulous teachers) while training for a 5K. Practices will be after school on Mondays and Thursdays. Registration opens on February 6th!  Please reach out to Cathy Gibson (cgibson@rcsdk8.org) or Jennifer Danielson (jdanielson@rcsdk8.org) with questions about the program or registration.  You can also find out more information about the program by visiting GOTRsac.org. The cost is $145 for registration. Financial assistance is available.

Get Connected with Reading and

The Community

The Book Corner

Welcome to the book corner, where Mrs. O'Connors and Mrs. Vandivier will share suggestions for books your kids can read or try at home.  The idea is to build a love for reading and open their world to other books and genres. 

If your child loves, or has grown out of, The Magic Treehouse series, here are some ideas for other books that they may enjoy...

Dragon Masters - a magical dragon stone picks a few lucky kids to become dragon masters.  They have many epic adventures in their quest for good.

Ranger In Time - a search and rescue dog that travels to different time periods to help others solve mysteries.

The Secret Zoo - In search of his sister, a young boy sets out on an adventure with help from some friends from the zoo.

Books may be found at the Sargeant Library, Roseville public libraries, local bookstores, Amazon and Scholastic.
