Greetings, Panther families!
Welcome to the 2022-23 school year! We are beyond excited to see everyone and to have students back in the building - filling our hallways with life and fun! See this edition of the Panther Press for all of the latest information.
UPDATES & REMINDERS
OPEN HOUSE/PICTURE DAY is on Tuesday, August 30th from 4:00pm - 6:00pm. Please see a few reminders below regarding the registration process and picture day.
- Enter through the east atrium door (Door #13) which is located by the gymnasium.
- As soon as you enter through Door #13 you will take a right to enter the gym and stop at the first station, which is the Registration table. There, we will be collecting registration fees, if you have not already paid online via E-funds ($50/per child - cash or check payable to Raymond School).
- After you stop at the Registration table please make your way around the gym to check out information regarding our PTO, extracurriculars, health forms, lunch menus, and other activities that Raymond has to offer!
- The last station in the gym will be Mortensen Photography, where your child will get their school photo taken. If you are unable to make it to Open House there will be a Retake Day some time this fall (exact date to be determined) - we will let you know as soon as it is scheduled.
You can order online by clicking the following link: https://mortensen.orderschoolpix.com/52089 Password: Prepay
See the images below these reminders for the actual order form and online ordering instructions.
- Having trouble logging into Skyward, our school information system? We will have laptops set up and staff available to help, should you need it.
- Lastly, you can head over to your child's classroom to drop off supplies (if you did not pre-order them) and meet his/her teacher! If the line for pictures is too long feel free to go to your child's classroom first and come back to the gym for pictures.
NEW FAMILY INFORMATION SESSIONS will take place during Open House at 4:30 PM and 5:00 PM in the Cafe'. Sessions will last approximately 15-20 minutes and will end with an opportunity to ask questions. All new families should plan to attend one of the sessions during Open House (4K families that participated in Orientation this spring do not need to attend).
FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL is Thursday, September 1st! This is always an exciting but anxious day for many. In an effort to keep the traffic flowing in the morning and the congestion to a minimum we do ask that you say your goodbyes before entering the loop for the drop off. As always, we will have staff stationed outside to help.
Parking Lot Heads-Up!
We will be having some paving removed and replaced during the first week of school. Please be aware of some different parking patterns from our staff and visitors. It's not ideal timing to have this work done - but we are thankful to have the work completed.
Check the Raymond Community Calendar below for the daily events that are scheduled.
This includes field trips, concerts, end-of-the-year events, School Board / PTO meeting dates, and more.
What's for Lunch?
See the Lunch Menu below. Note that lunch prices are listed on the menu and you can find an application for reduced lunch on the Lunch page of our website: Raymond School Lunch. Lunch payments can be made via E-funds (E-funds for Schools) or checks can be given in the office, payable to: RAYMOND CONSORTIUM.
