Dear Rudolph Gordon School Families,
What another great week at Rudolph Gordon School! It has been wonderful to see our students continuing to settle into routines, build relationships, and get back into the rhythm of learning together.
I also want to extend a sincere thank you to our families for your support with our updated elementary arrival procedures. We truly appreciate your patience, cooperation, and commitment to following the car line process. These procedures are designed with the safety of our students, staff, and families in mind, and your partnership makes such a difference in helping arrival run safely and smoothly each morning.
As we wrap up another great week, I hope your family has a wonderful and restful weekend. Thank you for continuing to partner with us and for helping make Rudolph Gordon such a special place.
We look forward to seeing everyone back at school on Monday! Have a great weekend, gators!
Your Principal,
Meredith Welch
Note: Lunch visitors and volunteers will begin after Labor Day, on Tuesday, September 8th. Thank you for allowing us the first couple weeks of school to get our students settled into their routines and procedures.
