Ms. Durko's wish for her birthday tomorrow (9/18/24)...Let's wear yellow/gold to support our own Noelle & Childhood Cancer Warriors!
Recent data shows that JCPS performed extremely well during the 2023-2024 year, lowering the number of low performing schools to ONLY 1, making the district the largest district with the lowest percentage of low performing schools!

Good evening parents, this is Ms. Durko with some reminders.
If you are a parent of a walker, we have been contacted by both River Dell Townes and also The Crossings neighborhoods. They have asked us to remind all RDE families to not park on their parking pads or cross through their personal yards when coming to pick up or drop off your children at RDE. We appreciate your cooperation with this.
Tomorrow night, September 17th, is RDE Student Success Night. We encourage all 1st-5th grade parents to attend this important event where you will be presented lots of information from teachers to help you help your children be successful. Families with last names beginning with the letters A-L should attend the session that is from 5:00-6:00, and families with last names beginning with the letters M-Z should attend the session that is from 6:30-7:30. This is not a floating event. 1st-5th grade teachers will have detailed presentations to share. Childcare will be provided for any RDE students.
We hope everyone has a safe night and remember, once a Racer, always a Racer.
Based on the current weather forecast, Johnston County Public Schools will continue normal operations on Monday, September 16, 2024. However, all after-school and evening campus activities and events have been canceled due to the forecast.
We understand that this decision will inconvenience many after-school events, however, student and staff safety is our primary concern.
It is our district’s goal to make our school communities as prepared as possible for emergency situations, including inclement weather. This decision has been made out of an abundance of caution, per the guidance of local and state emergency service officials.
Thank you for your understanding and cooperation as we navigate this storm event. We encourage everyone to follow the guidance of local weather officials, and have a safe evening!

Carpool gets better each day, and we want to thank our parents and our RDE staff for working together to make it successful. A reminder for AM Carpool: cars are welcome to utilize both lanes on the curvy driveway and "zipper" so that lines can alternate one car then another until 8:45. Beginning at 8:45, we will only utilize the RIGHT lane, and no longer utilize the alternating "zipper" method. Thanks for your cooperation with this process. We want to keep everyone safe each and every morning.
For our afternoon Carpool, we have been ending daily at or before 4:30. Please ensure that you arrive on campus by 4:15 to pick up your students.
Also, don't forget that breakfast and lunch are free for all students each and every day. We have an AMAZING cafeteria staff and they are happy to serve our students every day.
We hope you have a great week., and remember, once a Racer, always a Racer.
Good evening Racer families, this is your principal, Ms. Durko with some announcements and reminders.
As we prepare to finish up our 2nd week of classes, we want to express how proud we are of ALL of our students for how hard they have been working and how much they are already learning each and every day. They have been positive, attentive, and eager and this has been so exciting to see!
If you have not signed up for ROOMS, and need assistance please call our office. This is the main form of communication that our teachers use to keep all parents updated and in the loop about what is going on at school. We need 100% of our parents to be connected as soon as possible. Thank you!
We want to remind everyone that tomorrow (Friday, September 6th) is the last day that parents can walk kindergarteners to their class in the morning. Beginning Monday, all K-5 students should walk to their classrooms independently. I assure you all that we have plenty of adults stationed in the hallways to assist students as they travel. Safety is so important to us and we will make sure they arrive where they need to be safely.
Next week we have many events coming up.
On Tuesday , September 10th, we will be hosting a Girl Scout Information Night in our Media Center at 6:00. We invite any RDE girls to attend this meeting with a parent or guardian to learn about this awesome opportunity.

And as always, remember...once a Racer, always a Racer.
