Dear Families,
Our Book Blast event has just a few days left. If you haven’t, register your student and invite at least 10 friends and family: http://bookblast.booksarefun.com/RaccoonCSD62801
Already registered? We still need your help to get more books for our students. Inviting 2 more friends or family to this wonderful cause will help us reach our goal (use the link above).
Your participation also helps our teachers earn school supplies and books for their classrooms, and your student still has a chance to win a Treasure Chest stuffed with cash!
Thank you for showing our students they are supported by you, your friends, family, and our community!
Thank you,

Please check your child's backpack for picture packets and eclipse glasses that will be going home today.
Just a reminder.....
Today is a 2:00pm Dismissal!
Parents and Staff:
Due to safety concerns, we will not be in attendance on Monday, April 8th (eclipse day). The traffic concerns with 161 and being so close to the interstate have impacted our decision to be off on this day. The availability of law enforcement to reach us, if needed, is an additional concern.
We will be sending home eclipse glasses for your child, and teachers will be educating your student about the safety precautions of participating in an eclipse.
Thank you,
Mrs. Johannes
