Fun With Fathers at Washington

Written by P. Covert
Friday, 05 February 2010 14:51
DADS DO DDR Aproximately 200 Dads, or VIPs, attended Washington School's Fun With Fathers early in the morning on February 3&4th. The gymnasium was rockin' as Dads tried to keep up with their children during Dance Dance Revolution(DDR). The popular ACTIVE video game was projected onto the wall of the stage while everyone followed the arrows to move on their own "dance pad"--a great exercise in directionality! Dads were introduced to a mini-Physical Education class and followed their child's daily activity. We started with routine exercises including jumping jacks, mountain climbers, push-ups and stretches. Dads did a terrific job with push-ups (as pictured)!! We also did the Chicken Dance and Hokey Pokey. It was great to see Dads participating with their children and it was great to see all the smiles!!

Haiti Relief

Tuesday, 19 January 2010 14:10

As you all know, Haiti is in need of a lot of support right now. The 7th grade teachers at RMS felt that this would be an excellent opportunity for our students to make a difference in their world. The 7th grade is going to have a bake sale to raise money during the 7th and 8th grade lunch hours on Friday, January 22, 2010.

RMS Builder's Club will be collecting spare change from all homeroom classes on Friday for this cause. Hopefully, between the two fundraisers, we will be able to make a nice donation to a charity that is supporting the Haiti Relief Effort.

We would appreciate your support.
