As we celebrate Red Ribbon Week lets share the importance of this campaign in promoting a drug-free lifestyle for our students. Red Ribbon Week is a valuable opportunity to educate our students about the dangers of drug use and the benefits of making healthy, positive choices. Red Ribbon Week is October 23-31.
Unity Day is October 16th. Let's show we stand together for kindness, acceptance and inclusion.
We stand against bullying! Let's show that we are unified as we celebrate Kindness during Spirit Week October 14-18.
On Thursdays we wear pink! Let's come together and show our support for Breast Cancer Awareness.
We are thrilled to share that the 2024-2025 Teacher of the Year at Rufus E. Payne Elementary School is none other than our phenomenal Eagle Leader and Instructional Coach, Mrs. Rochay! Her dedication to the House of Payne has been felt, and it is now time for her to receive her flowers! What an honor it is to have you a part of this School Community! Congratulations, Mrs. Rochay.
Eagle Nation! We are headed to the college or career of our choice! During the week of September 30th join us in preparing for our futures by dressing up each day of the week. Please find the flyer attached with each themed day!
Hi parents!
My name is Ms. Fry, the proud media specialist at Rufus E. Payne! I look forward to welcoming students to the library. Students will soon be able to check out books. K-1st graders usually keep their books at school. If a student brings a book home, it is their responsibility to take care of it and bring it back to the library once they are finished. Failure to return books may result in losing the privilege to check out.
If a book is lost, students must replace the book or pay a fine. These fines stay on their record through their senior year, and outstanding fines can keep them from attending graduation ceremonies. Let’s work together to teach responsibility! Thank you for supporting the library!
