Let It Snow, Let It Snow, Let It snow

Dear Rollingwood Academy Families,

As we step into the festive month of December, we are filled with gratitude and excitement for all the joyful moments ahead. This month is a special time at Rollingwood Academy as we celebrate the season with fun activities, learning opportunities, and memorable events that highlight the spirit of giving and togetherness. From holiday crafts and classroom festivities to acts of kindness and community service, there’s so much to look forward to. Thank you for being such an important part of our Rollingwood family—we can’t wait to make this December one to remember!

Weather

With colder days ahead, we will still aim to get our students outdoors at least once a day to get some fresh air to strengthen the immune system. Please make sure your child comes to school with layers, gloves and a hat! If you have not already done so, please send in an extra pair of labeled gloves (mittens for the little ones) and a hat to keep at school.

2025-2026 School Year

Believe it or not, it is time to start thinking about the 2025-2026 school year! Those of you who plan on returning to our school next year should plan to register as soon as possible to ensure preferred placement. Please return the re-enrollment form by December 20th to ensure placement for the upcoming school year.

Thank You for Your Generosity!

We want to extend our heartfelt gratitude to all our Rollingwood families for making the Food Bank Food Drive a tremendous success! Your kindness and contributions will make a meaningful difference for those in need this holiday season. We also deeply appreciate your participation in the Angel Tree Drive, helping to bring joy to children in need. If you haven’t yet turned in your Angel Tree gifts, please be sure to drop them off by December 5th. Thank you for coming together as a community to spread hope and kindness this season!

Holiday Party

Our annual Holiday Party will be on December 20th at 12:00pm. All students are invited to attend on this day. Please drop your child off by 10:00am if you would like them to participate in our surprise visit from Santa as well!

We are delighted to announce that our school will be hosting an international holiday party this year, and we invite you and your students to join in the festive celebration. To make this event truly special and reflective of the rich diversity within our school community, we encourage students to bring a dish to the party that holds significance in their culture or represents a cherished family tradition. We believe that this culinary exchange will not only showcase the vibrant tapestry of our student body but also provide a unique opportunity for cultural exchange and understanding. In addition to the dish, students and their families are welcome to create a postcard explaining the cultural or familial significance of their chosen culinary delight. Let's come together to make this holiday season a time of shared joy, cultural appreciation, and delicious memories.
