News from Ms. Trena:

Dear REMS Families, 

The next few weeks will bring an abundance of joy and treasured moments that will occur in the blink of an eye! I encourage all of us, myself included, to slow down, let the things we can't control go, breathe, and enjoy the small moments.  We are certainly excited and grateful to engage, teach and learn from your children every day. 

As a whole school crew, we have been focusing on Service. I sincerely appreciate how our students have demonstrated their personal endeavors to positively impact the larger community through acts of service.  Every small act of kindness has been noticed! 

I also wanted to offer my gratitude to our parent community, our staff and especially Ms. Allison Armour for the contributions and endeavors to make the holidays meaningful for Douglas County families through the Holiday Adoptions Program! Our community has truly shown its benevolence and stewardship in supporting over 91 families this year.  What a great way to kick off the holiday season at REMS by investing in our own community! Thank you, for your active contributions to Holiday Adoptions.
