SAFE ARRIVAL

250-478-1447

We Need Your Help!!!
Ensuring that students arrive to school safely is a top priority for everyone at Ruth King. Unfortunately we currently do not have enough parent volunteers to staff our safe arrival program. If you are able to help out, even if it is just one morning a month, please come and see us at the office so that we can maintain this wonderful and essential program.
Leadership
Leadership is an important component at Ruth King Elementary. Students in grades 5 and 6 will be planning many activities that will enrich our school community and provide many learning opportunities. Students are excited about planning a variety of events (Anti-Bullying day, Destination Conservation, the Christmas Hampers and Spirit Days). Updates will be included in the school's newsletter.
Reading Across Canada
Hot off the press, we know how important reading is to student learning. Students success improves with parental involvement. To that end we have developed a home reading program that students and parents can participate in to improve student learning. Students are asked to record their home reading time each week and submit the home reading records to their teacher. The minutes will represent kilometers and we trace our way from West to East on the Canada map located in the foyer. Have fun, keep reading!
