On February 6th, 2018 the Red Cross held Anti-Bullying Presentations for Ruth Pawson students grades K-8.

The United Nations proclaimed the International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination in 1966. March 21 is now recognized as a day where we can all reflect on the progress made and the challenges that remain in combating racism, discrimination and intolerance in our community and around the world.

Every day, each and every one of us can stand up against prejudice and intolerant attitudes and reaffirm our commitment to fairness and diveristy.

This has been a challenging winter - with rain, snow and bitter cold weather. We want to thank Mr. Jaindl and Mr. Bolanos, our facility operators for battling the ice, and keeping our sidewalks clear and safe for everyone.
