Sargeant Celebrates Positive Behavior

During the month of August, our site participated in a PBIS kickoff to teach students all about the B.A.R.K expectations. Students participated in the "Collect The Rainbow" challenge to earn different colored bulldog bucks from each grade level. Students worked hard during the month of August to collect the rainbow of bulldog bucks from teachers and staff all around campus! 


We are always on the lookout for Bulldogs who are doing an awesome job following our B.A.R.K expectations.  Throughout the month of  September students who earn a bulldog buck with a paw print sticker on it will redeem it for a Bulldog pencil! Other fun incentives are happening in teacher classrooms as well.  Keep being safe, respectful, responsible, and kind!


Student Council

Hello Sargeant families, we have a final update regarding student council elections! Mrs. K and Mrs. Palin have been so impressed with the responsibility and enthusiasm shown by students who are running for office. It makes us so happy to see the students proud to represent their campus and run a kind campaign. We are so excited for Student Council this year!


This past week, students were hard at work campaigning for votes by hanging up their posters and recording their speeches with Mrs. K and Mrs. Palin. Third through fifth-grade students will view the speeches in their classrooms on Monday and Tuesday, then cast their votes for the officer positions. Mrs. K and Mrs. Palin will go through all of the ballots, and tally up the votes on Tuesday, 9/12 after school. After that, we will call all families of students who ran for Student Council to thank them for an amazing election process, and to let them know whether or not they were elected for an officer position this year! Our 2023-24 Student Council officers will be announced to the campus at school on Wednesday. 


Thank you so much for supporting and encouraging your child throughout this process. We are so proud of them! Please reach out with any questions.


Sincerely,

Mrs. K - kkurpershoek@rcsdk8.org

Mrs. Palin - kpalin@rcsdk8.org
