You can’t have a great week without a great Monday! It’s the 4th week of the 4th quarter. Wasn’t the weather this weekend beautiful? Today it continued and all the students enjoyed being outside. Guitar Recital We invite the whole school to join us on Thursday, May 2 for our Guitar Recital, at 6:00 pm, in the church auditorium. Piano Recital The Piano Recital will be during school hours, but you are invited to join us! The recital is on May 7, at 10:00 am, in the church auditorium. Teacher Appreciation Week Teacher Appreciation Week is coming up on May 6-10. We will send out more information soon on the themes, and how you can help. Typically, for this week, we send out daily themes and as parents bring items in, we offer to all of our staff. Iowa Testing Iowa testing for students in LC 6 and 7 will start next week, April 23-25. Remember, the Iowa assessments are designed to help schools objectively assess students’ academic progress from year to year, but the results will not change the Paces that the student is completing. Parents, we request that if possible, you do not schedule any appointments for your students on the day of testing. If you have one scheduled already, please let your child’s teacher know right away. Vacation Bible School 2024 RBC is excited to share that the date for VBS is locked in! VBS is a fun-filled week of bible study, recreation, crafts, snacks, and so much more. And it’s FREE. VBS is for all students in PreK-6th grade. We will send out more information soon so students can register online.

Parents, we join you in the desire to see students finish the year well. Arriving at school on time is one way to help students have a productive day. Parents with student drivers, please ensure your child is making it to school before 8:20 AM. Also, let me encourage each of you to talk with your child about ending the school year well by staying focused on their daily work, striving to complete any homework assigned, and following school rules.
Solar Eclipse (School Closed) On April 8, RCA will be closed so students can experience the solar eclipse with their families. Early Enrollment As a reminder, re-enrollment (at the discounted rate of $100) ends this Friday, April 5. After April 5, we will open enrollment to new students. Please turn in your form with payment this week--if you did not receive the form last week in your parent envelope, please contact Mrs. Becky and we will get one to you. We are excited to be in the planning stages for the 2024-2025 school year! Open Enrollment Enrollment for new students is opening soon! If you know of any families interested in RCA, please direct them to call the office at 512-360-3109 to set up a time to visit and tour. This year we are offering a $100 tuition credit to anyone who refers a family to RCA and they are enrolled through the 1st quarter. Iowa Testing On April 23-25 students in LC6 & LC7 will be taking the Iowa Academic Assessment test. Please make sure students get plenty of rest and eat a healthy breakfast before they take their test. Mark Your Calendar Please note that our Awards Assembly for all students is on Friday, May 17, at 10:00 AM. This is for the entire school, and we invite parents, grandparents, and siblings to come be a part of it. Each class receives awards and has a presentation. Please mark your calendar and plan to attend. Have a blessed week! JR Regalado Current Student Enrollment Open3/25/2024 Good afternoon, RCA Family!
Today is the first day of the 4th quarter. This week Report Cards will be sent home in your blue Parent Envelope. The 4th quarter officially ends with the last day of school on Friday, May17, 2024 and our Awards Assembly. The following week, May 20-22, only students in LC 5, 6 and 7 who have tests to complete may be asked to come to school. Please encourage your child to do extra work, if there is a need to do so. Contact your child’s teacher if you have any questions or concerns. Early Enrollment Today begins early enrollment for current students. All students will receive a re-enrollment form in their Parent Envelope. To ensure your child has a place at RCA next year, please respond promptly. The early enrollment fee of $100 will only be good until Friday, April 5th - after that time it will increase to the current fee of $175. Parents, make sure if you wish to re-enroll your student(s), that you do so no later than Friday, April 5th, to receive the discount fee. Please understand that we can make no exceptions to this, as after this time we open enrollment to new students, and we must have an accurate assessment of each classroom's capacity. Tuition Our fundraiser this year was a success! Our totals show that we raised over $36,000. This will enable us to offset what tuition and fees do not cover for staff salaries and other expenses, and as we prepare to improve the school and upgrade/maintain the facilities. With that being said, we have made the prayerful decision to implement a slight increase in tuition for the 2024-2025 school year. Tuition for each returning student will increase $25 per month, per student ($225 per year). We strive to make attending RCA as affordable as possible; our fees are 40-60 percent below private schools in our area. Paid In Full Discount We are offering to all parents, a non-refundable repayment discount of 5% on their total annual tuition for all students enrolled, if paid in full by Thursday, August 1, 2024. This discount is for tuition only. Referral Incentive Let your family and friends know how much you love your school and refer them to RCA! We are now offering a $100 tuition credit-incentive for each student who enrolls in RCA (the new student must be enrolled through the first quarter). All $100 referrals will be credited to your tuition in December 2024. 2024-2025 Tuition Payment Schedule For the 2024-25 school year the first tuition payment will be due on August 1. The monthly tuition payment schedule will be August through January and March through May. In February of 2025, a non-refundable fee for books and enrollment will be due. Moving forward we will start including an RCA t-shirt in with the enrollment fee. Looking Forward Tuition for current 2023 students will start in August for the 2024 school year. In February of 2025 (next school year), the non-refundable enrollment and book fee will be due to guarantee your student’s place for the 2025-26 school year, and tuition payments will be August through January and March through May. This payment schedule adjustment is imperative to allow us to better prepare for the upcoming school year. 2024- 2025 RCA Tuition & Enrollment Schedule (for current students) April 5 Early Enrollment (returning student) includes T-Shirt $100 *After April 5 Enrollment Fee $175 August 26 Book Fees $375 Aug-Jan Monthly Tuition February 2025-2026 School Year Early Enrollment and Book Fee Mar-May Monthly Tuition Attached to this email you will find a copy of the Re-Enrollment Application and we will send a paper copy home this week in the blue Parent Envelope. If you have any questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to reach out. In His service, JR Regalado Praise the Lord for a successful fundraiser on Saturday! THANK YOU to our wonderful parents, students, staff, school family and church family for all your hard work. It was an amazing day, and none of it would have happened without the grace of our God.
We are thankful for all the great businesses and individuals who donated items for the live auction. Thanks too, to all the people who baked goods for both the silent and live auctions. And thank you, to all you great people who came out and supported RCA by spending your hard-earned money by investing in the future of our students. Last, but not least, ‘Thank You’ to Rachel and Brian Bracewell (Owners of Southside Market & Barbeque). They donated and cooked the sausage for the BBQ fundraiser. What a blessing. Please go by and support their business and all those who helped sponsor the RCA fundraiser. This week, we have Noon Early Release on Friday, March 8, and then we have no school for Spring Break March 11-15. There are just three weeks left until the end of the 3rd quarter! Scripture Memorization is due this Friday. Parents, thank you for your commitment to RCA. Let’s continue to work and go forward together. Keep us in your prayers. We are so blessed! I pray for God’s blessings on each of you. Blessings, JR Regalado BBQ AUCTION WEEK IS HERE!2/26/2024 BBQ/AUCTION WEEK IS HERE!
The BBQ Dinner and Auction is this Saturday—March 2!! Excitement is in the air. There is still time left to donate and solicit items for the fundraiser and sell the remainder of your BBQ or Raffle tickets. Please remember, we need all BBQ tickets paid for (to Mrs. Becky in the office) before Thursday of this week, even if unsold. We also need the stubs of SOLD raffle tickets turned in by Thursday and any that are unsold turned in as well. If you are bringing in an auction item, please have it to the school by Friday morning. If you need to arrange a later drop-off than that, please let us know. Auction Items Needed: We have some nice vacations, hunting trips, and concert ticket packages, but we could use some benches, fire pits, quilts, and things of this nature. Parent/Student Jobs: Duties for parents and students are being sent out! We need to hear back from you as soon as possible to confirm that you can work the assigned shift. Thank you! LARGE TO-GO ORDERS: If you have sold tickets to an individual or business and they plan on getting 10 or more To-Go plates at one time, please let them know to contact Mrs. Becky at 512-360-3109 or sec@rosankybaptistchurch.com.

This Thursday, February 29, students in LC 3 and up should bring clothes that can get dirty—we will be breaking down desks and cleaning in the afternoon. Also, on Thursday, there will be NO heat-ups. Remember, there is no school on Friday, March 1 as all staff will be setting up for the fundraiser. On Monday, March 6, all students may wear jeans with an RCA shirt to school. We are so thankful for your commitment to RCA. As we prepare for this weekend, we feel blessed to have such a great group of students/parents/grandparents praying for our school. Blessings, JR Regalado I hope that you had a wonderful Presidents Day—and enjoyed the long weekend.
This is the 5th week of the 3rd quarter and this week your child’s Mid-quarter Progress Report will be sent home in the Parent Envelope. Please look it over carefully and make sure that if your child is on level, he/she is on schedule to complete at least 3 grades in each subject for this quarter. If your child is behind and not on level, he/she should be on schedule to complete more than 4 Paces in any subject in which they are behind. (All grades after 1/20/23 are for this quarter). We want each child to achieve Privilege Status for the quarter. Please discuss with your child’s teacher any concerns or questions you might have. Very soon, we will be opening pre-registration for all returning students. To guarantee your child will have a spot next year at RCA, you will need to respond quickly when re-enrollment opens. Watch for more information coming soon! Student Tardies School starts at 8:20 am. If your child is not at their class table by 8:20 am, they will be counted as tardy. Students who arrive after 8:20 am must report to the Fellowship Hall, and not hang out in the restrooms or hallways during our morning exercises. The exterior doors automatically lock at 8:25 am, students who show up after this time will need to be signed in by a parent or guardian. If you have any questions or concerns about this, please give me a call or stop by the office so we can discuss it. Solar Eclipse of April 8, 2024 A solar eclipse occurs when the moon passes between the Earth and the Sun, masking the image of the Sun from the viewers on Earth. We wish for families to experience the Solar Eclipse together so RCA is giving students the day off. This day off is not on the school calendar.
