Thank you!
Thank you for your support with the Scholastic Book Fair. We
sold enough products to earn us over $1,700 in Scholastic
reward dollars to spend on books for our school. We couldn't
do it without you!
Again…Thank you!
Thank you to everyone who came to the conferences! We had
an amazing turn out! If you were not able to attend
conferences, please make sure you schedule a time to meet
with your elementary school teacher. Middle school parents, if
you were unable to come to conferences, please stop by the
front office to obtain your student’s grades. Also, THANK YOU
to everyone who donated food for conferences! RFMA staff
was full and happy! Thank you!

Humble challenge
Middle school is collecting non-perishable food items for the

partnering with elementary school classrooms to collect food to
donate to people in need. Please help support the

Excellent Opportunity to Earn Volunteer Hours!
Although our school day ends early on Friday, our staff works
hard during the rest of the day on improving their skills and
knowledge for the benefit of our Magonistas. You can help
them by providing snacks and food items (i.e. cheese,
crackers, veggies and dip, sandwiches or any hot food) on
these days and at the same time earn volunteer hours
credits. Please drop your donated items by 1:00pm on
Fridays at the front office. Thank you!
Jackets
Due to the unpredictable Colorado winter, it is mandatory that
all Magonistas have winter jackets daily to be able to go
outside for recess. If a Magonista does not have a jacket they
may not be able to attend outdoor recess.
