Just a friendly reminder that tomorrow we will be honoring the passing of Mr. Wagner by celebrating "Wagner Wednesday." We are asking that everyone wear a tie to school.
Students will be able to wear one of four styles of shirt with their tie, they are:
A button down shirt with a tie (Mr. Wagner always wore this)
A Chicago Cubs shirt with a tie (Mr. Wagner’s favorite baseball team)
A Chicago Bears shirt with a tie (Mr. Wagner’s favorite football team)
A Conklin Uniform shirt with a tie (if you don’t have one of the three shirts listed above)
We look forward to seeing everyone tomorrow for this special day.
Have a great night!

Both the school district & local law enforcement are aware of a generic Snapchat social media post that's making threats against schools. This posting has appeared in multiple states. Law enforcement is actively investigating to determine the origination of this source. Currently, it's deemed that the threat isn't credible, and it's not specifically targeting RPS 205 schools. Safety is our number one priority, and we take all threats seriously.
A friendly reminder PTO is hosting a "Welcome Back Social" from 5:00 - 6:30 pm tonight near the playground! A small meal will be provided. We hope to see everyone there!
Un recordatorio amistoso ¡PTO está organizando una "social de bienvenida" de 5:00 a 6:30 pm esta noche cerca del patio de recreo! Se proporcionará una pequeña comida. ¡Esperamos verlos a todos allí!
Our second graders were using a game show board to help review for an assessment today. Some IB learner profile traits used were: communicator, thinkers, knowledgeable, and principled. #internationalbaccalaureate
Yesterday, our 6th grade students collaborated with one another on a Geography project and then made presentations. We are proud of these students for being open-minded, taking risks and being effective communicators! #internationalbaccalaureate
