Read with the Fireflies
We kicked off our Read with the Fireflies promotion on March 1 with a visit from the Fireflies staff and Mason, their mascot! Each student must reach their classroom reading goal, then they will be able to order a FREE ticket for a Fireflies game. The order forms must be returned to the Fireflies by April 3. *Parents/guardians need to order at least one extra ticket ($9) to attend with their child. Order forms will be sent home once the student meets their goal.
Rice Creek's game is on Sunday, May 7, at 2pm. 
We hope to see everyone there!

The Weekly Dolphin Digest, 2/2

Hello Dolphins,
What an awesome community we have here at Rice Creek Elementary!!! As you all know, this past Sunday, The Reserves at Lake Carolina had a building destroyed by fire. Unfortunately, one of our staff members and 4 other Rice Creek families were displaced because of this fire. We conducted a “Fill the Bucket” project this past Tuesday and Wednesday to collect monetary donations. Thus far, we have raised over $3300.00 for our families from that 2 day event. ALL of the proceeds will be distributed equally to the family members. We are still collecting monetary donations in the front office if you would still like to contribute.

Our kindergarteners celebrated the 100th day of school yesterday. Our teachers provided different activities centered around 100 for the students. We have pictures below to show how adorable some of them were.

Finally, we are looking forward to our Father/Daughter Dance tomorrow evening from 6:30 pm until 8:30 pm! Dads, we will have someone here to take pictures for you to purchase. Tickets will be available at the door.

Mr. Gadson
Principal
