New Info:

  • Congratulations to our Track Team on Friday!! Well done Ruth King athletes!  Thank you to the PAC members who organized the hot lunches and their delivery to the students at the Track Meet.  Shout out to your coaches as well – Ms. van der Leeden, Ms. Pinel and Mr. Stephenson!
  • 18 more school days until Summer Break!
  • Grade 2 and 3 students please wear dark clothing tomorrow for your “Glowstick Dance Party” with Ms. Spencer and Mr. G in the gym.

Standing Reminders:

  • Please remember to do the “Daily Health Check” with your child and keep them home if your child is sick or displaying any symptoms. Covid is still going around and we have had to send many children home sick…
  • Staff parking is an issue for us when parents are parked in the designated stalls on Matson Road. Please refrain from parking in these stalls when dropping off your child.  Your attention to this matter is greatly appreciated.
  • Please refrain from riding bikes, scooters, and skateboards on the playground.
  • Please remember not to bring dogs onto the Ruth King grounds as it is a dog free zone. Thank you.
