We hope everyone had an opportunity to enjoy their summer and spend time with family and friends. The staff at REC have been working hard behind the scenes prior to your children starting on Thursday to provide a positive start to the 2024-25 school year.

All lost and found items are kept on a table in the Foyer until the last school day of the month.

If there is a change to your child’s planned routine at the end of the day (they need to take the bus home or are being picked up instead of taking the bus, etc), please call the main office and speak to office staff prior to 2:00pm to be sure the message is relayed to your child before the end of the day.

Please refrain from texting or calling your child’s cell phone during the day. If it is an emergency to reach your child, please call the main office.

Procedure for arriving late to school

Procedure for picking students up at the end of the day (regular routine)

Students are reminded to bring their water bottle or a cup. Unfortunately, the school does not have bottles or cups available.

When students are being picked up by someone other than their parents/guardians, please be sure the student has a note from home to give permission.

When dropping items off for your child during the day (i.e., lunches, lunch money, clothing, etc), please ensure your child’s name is on the item for pick up from the main office.

When students are leaving during the school day, prior to dismissal at 2:25pm, parents/guardians must come into the Main Office to sign the child out.

CCRCE rarely cancels school mid-day due to weather or road conditions. However, there may be other factors, such as power outages, that may result in a school closing unexpectedly during the day.

Don't forget to opt-in to receive text notifications from REC & CCRCE.

Here’s everything you need to know about arrival, dismissal, and mid-day pickups at our school. From signing in late arrivals to changes in routines and safe dismissal procedures, these guidelines are in place to ensure the safety and smooth transition of your child throughout the school day.

You are asked to report your child’s absence in advance using any of these 3 convenient methods:
