Our dream of implementing a campus-wide House System at RES has come true, and the reveal was nothing short of amazing! The excitement was through the roof as our students discovered their house colors, and the energy was contagious. I’m thrilled to see how this initiative will spark intrinsic motivation and foster a stronger sense of community among our students. The journey ahead is bright, and I can't wait to see all the great things we’ll achieve together!
🎉 Huge shoutout to the incredible RES team!
For years, it’s been a vision to create a RES House System, and this year, it’s finally becoming a reality—thanks to the amazing staff who’ve turned this vision into something truly special. They’ve taken my wild ideas, executed them with enthusiasm, and together, we’re ready to shake things up at Rusk Elementary! I couldn’t ask for a better team to stand beside me as we bring exciting changes to our school. Here’s to making RES even stronger! ❤️💛💙💚
