    The Dino Dash is here! Have you registered yet?

    The PTA would like to give a huge thank you to Rex Road parent Leigh McNaughton for painting our Spirit Rock to kick off the Dino Dash. It looks fantastic! Our goal is to raise $15,000 for a sun shade for the playground, and we know we can reach it with your support. If you haven’t already, please visit mybooster.com and sign up your student today. If we surpass our goal, we hope to add sun shades to both playgrounds!

    👑 Congratulations to our Early Registration Challenge Winner! 🎉

    A big round of applause to Locklyn Rathgeb in Ms. Murphee’s class!

    You are the winner of the Early Registration Challenge for Tracks 1 & 3 and have won your choice of a free yearbook or skip-the-line pass! 🙌


    We’d also like to celebrate these amazing classes:

    • Ms. Wirick’s class – had the most students registered before kickoff and earned an extra recess! 🌟

    • Ms. Mattox’s class – won two challenges in a row 🎯 and earned an extra recess! Plus, they’ll get the ultimate prize… the chance to pie Mrs. McGuirt in the face! 🥧😂


    Who’s ready for a weekend challenge?! 🙋‍♀️ Get a $60 flat donation or $2 per minute donation before Monday and you’ll score a GLOW IN THE DARK EDITION keychain. Good luck!
