Notes From Ms. Trena

This week, I would like to take a few moments of gratitude for several of our crew community members for their benevolence and impact on our crew family here at REMS!

~ Ms. Allison for her unwavering dedication to the Holiday Adoptions Program.  Her program serves families in the Castle Rock and Parker communities that are facing hardships by bringing them a wonderful holiday celebration. 

~ Our "Deck the Halls Crew" for beautifying our school with holiday decorations.  What a gift to witness on Monday morning! 
~ Our families for donating socks, gifts for the Holiday Adoptions, decorations, belay training, volunteering, and donations for Red Envelope.  Your contributions and thoughtfulness are greatly appreciated! 
~Ms. Allie Waltee, our PCF President, who has been integral in overseeing all of the special projects happening at REMS, including the installation of the climbing wall. 


~ Our AMAZING Front Office (Ms. Cari, Ms. Denise, Ms. Hope and Ms. Sam) for working so hard everyday to ensure safety and support our students, families and staff! 

With kind regards, 
Trena L. Hand
Proud Principal 

Our Lost & Found is Being Donated

Our Lost & Found is slowly creeping down the hall. If you are missing something please make the time to come check next week. We will be donating all unclaimed items on Friday, December 9th

Elementary Progress Reports 

Elementary Progress Reports (EPRs) will be released to parents in the Parent Portal on Friday, December 23 at 9am.  This is an essential snapshot to view your child's current progress towards standards mastery in the first semester.  Our teachers spend a great amount of time reporting out on each child's progress on grade level expectations each semester.  Parents, please take a few minutes to review your child's progress for the 2022-23 school year. 

NEW! Staff Spotlights:

Get to know some of our amazing staff that's new at REMS this year! Did you know Ms. Erin, our librarian lived in Greece? Or Ms. Amy, our SLP, has never lived where it snows? Ms. Cyndee, from the SPED team, loves to watch a good drag race! Learn more at their spotlights below.

Save The Date: Parent/Teacher Data Conferences:

Parent/Teacher Data Conferences will be held on December 14th.  Your child's teacher will be reaching out to you to schedule individual conferences to review your child's progress in the first semester. This is an excellent time to review data, determine progress with grade level expectations and to anticipate plans for the second semester. 

NEW! News from our Parent Crew

The Red Envelope Holiday Giving project is in full force! Look for the envelope in your youngest (or only) child's folder for information about how, where, and when to spread a little generosity to all our amazing REMS staff!
