🔥 Jog-A-Thon is Heating Up 🔥
This week your student will be bringing home a JAT fundraising envelope, and there’s lots of details we wanted to break it all down here!
RP Bike Rodeo with FREE BIKES!!
On May 13th we’re going to have a school wide Bike Rodeo hosted by Washco Bikes/Reborn Bikes/FB4K.
It’s a fun way for kids to learn/practice bike handling skills and basic safety info. Kids will run through some drills and obstacle courses in the RPES parking lot. It will include learning about the ABC Quickcheck, helmet fitting, and we will have enough loaner bikes for everyone to participate.
In addition to all the volunteer organizers putting on the Bike rode we’re looking for volunteers to help with setup and support during 75 minute shifts with the students.

When : Sunday, April 21, 1:00-4:00pm
