 Sign up for the RCES news listserv. This listserv will send the school’s weekly “Heron Herald” newsletter and headline news from the RCES PTA.  You will not be able to reply on this listserv. Once you sign up, you will continue to receive communication until your children leave RCES and you unsubscribe. This also enables families to have more than one parent signed up to receive the newsletter. If you do not have computer access, please notify the school.

    To sign up for the new RCES News listserv, follow these 2 steps:
    1. Send in the subject of an email "subscribe" to RCES-PTA-News-subscribe@yahoogroups.ca

    Rachel Carson in the News

    Community Outreach

    Read about our Community Outreach Program efforts featured in the February 3 Gazette.  The Outreach Program for our families at Governor Sqaure Apartments. This great program is supported by the school staff, parents and the PTA.  It is a completely volunteer driven program.  You can read about it at http://www.gazette.net/stories/02032010/gaitnew220626_32547.php. Please contact Cathy Shinn if you are interested in helping.

    Thank you to our teachers, administrators and of course the parents that have been helping out in their efforts to make a difference for our extended community.
