“Caught Being Kind” at Rivercrest Elementary

We're celebrating Random Acts of Kindness Week February 8th-12th. Our faculty will be watching closely to "catch" students demonstrating kindness. If your student is "caught" then their name will be placed on the KINDNESS BANNER and they might win a door prize!

If you'd like to reinforce KINDNESS at home, here are some things to think about. "Catch your child being good." Find something that you like and praise them for it! "You made your bed without being asked, that's terrific!" or "I was watching you play with your sister and you were very patient." These statements will do more to encourage good behavior over the long run than repeated lectures. Make a point of finding something to praise every day and be generous with rewards. Your love, hugs and compliments can work wonders and are often reward enough. Soon you will find you are "growing" more of the behavior you would like to see! Have fun spreading kindness and please let me know if I can assist you in any way.

Rivercrest ISD will have a two hour delayed start tomorrow, January 11th, due to concerning weather conditions.

The delayed start will give the District time to monitor road conditions as early morning temperatures could possibly fall below the freezing point.

Buses will run two hours later than normal and classes will begin at 10:00.

Notifications will be sent in the morning if there are any changes to this start time.

Also, because Red River County has more than 30 active COVID cases, Rivercrest is under a mask mandate. All staff and students must wear a mask at school when they are not able to socially distance.

Thank you,
