Roadrunner Community, we are reaching out again to ask for your assistance in helping us replace the tennis balls we use for our student chairs. The tennis balls keep our chairs from scratching our floors but more importantly they help reduce auditory discomfort for our students. Your continued assistance with replacing our safety cones is also appreciated.

Thank You

Today, our community lost a truly special person. Isela Rojas passed away earlier today, leaving a void in our hearts. Isela was more than just a colleague; she was a friend to many and a dedicated Counselor who touched the lives of countless students, staff, and families. As we process this news, please remember to be kind to yourselves and each other. We will be ready to offer support to anyone in need starting on Monday. In the meantime, we invite you to hold Isela’s family in your hearts and prayers. We will provide updates on how we plan to honor her legacy soon. With deepest sympathy, Mr. Belknap
