Kind of Lonely at R. L. Young

So what happens at an elementary school when the children leave? Believe me, it is a whirlwind of activity, especially for Mrs. Diane. 

Tasks that have OR will occur this summer:

*Carpet is being removed and hardwood sanded/refinished in the 3rd and 4th grade main building classrooms.

*Sixth grade memory benches for playground are being covered with plexiglass and will be anchored to secure.

*The playground swings will be painted and the playground rules will be posted for students to see throughout the year. 

*All floors will be waxed and shining when students and staff return. 

*Thanks to the generosity of the Talladega Walmart, many new rosebushes and plants have been added to the grounds. 

*New animal cards and furry animals  have arrived. They will be organized and ready to start at the beginning of the year. We will have cards and animals from Norway, Costa Rica, Kenya, and Thailand.

*A new banner has been ordered for the parent table in the lunchroom. 

*Painting is going on in all directions to spruce up our buildings. 

There are too many things to list them all, BUT we are excited to be preparing for a great new school year. We (Mrs. Hodnett, Mrs. Diane, and me) miss the footsteps in the hallway and will have everything ready when students return on August 11. 

p.s. Don't forget that our MEET AND GREET will be on August 7. Parents will receive a call, letter, or card with the time and meeting place details. The principal will be hosting a Title 1 Parent Meeting (Aug. 7 at 2:30 p.m.) before the grade level meetings. Everyone is welcome!

Happy summer....
