VOLUNTEER APPRECIATION & SOCIAL HOUR Plan to join fellow PTA volunteers for a
bit of holiday cheer on Thursday, December 17th from 9-10 AM in the cafeteria!
FROM THE ADMINISTRATION It seems the new sun shades on the playground that
were just replaced two weeks ago, to the tune of $2300.00 have slits cut in
them again. This probably happened over the Thanksgiving break. Both the
district and the sheriff have been notified, but there is really nothing that
can be done. We will keep them up as long as they don't look shabby; but when
they do, the district will remove them.
SUPERINTENDENT UPDATE A Community Meeting with Dr. Jesús Chávez will be held
Tuesday, Dec. 8 from 6 to 7:30 p.m. at Pluckers, 300 Mays Crossing in Round
Rock. This is for community members to meet Dr. Chávez and discuss current
and future goals for RRISD as well as address any questions they might have.
Light refreshments will be available. Please RSVP by 10 a.m. on Dec. 8 via e-
mail to community_relations@roundrockisd.org or by phone at 512-464-5113.
