Some updates:
🥞 Family Data Breakfast Info:
💙 As long as we are on a regular schedule tomorrow, February 5th, we will still have our FREE data breakfast for students in grades K-5 for those parents who RSVPd.
💛 Parents are welcome to come into the school beginning at 8:15. We will have two separate breakfasts this year. If you have a child in K-2 and 3-5, parents may attend both breakfasts but will only receive one meal.
💙 K-2 parents and students only may put their things down and go straight to the gym for breakfast. During this time, I ask that parents of students in grades 3-5 look through their purple data tracking folders in their classrooms.
💛Around 8:45, students and parents in grades K-2 will be dismissed back to classrooms to look through the data folders, while students in grades 3-5 will be dismissed to the gym for breakfast.
💙 During each breakfast, Mrs. Lowe will share a short presentation on our school goals for this year and how close we are to meeting them.
💯 The 100th Day of School is now on Monday, February 9th.
➕➖✖️ Math Field Day is still on for tomorrow, February 5th. The students who have been selected will eat lunch early and leave Ashford-Rumble around 11:15 A.M. Parents of those students must be present for the awards at 5 P.M. in the Sherman High Gym. The rest of the competition will be closed to the public.
📚 Extended Day permission forms for students who were invited are due back to school this Friday, February 6th. If any student was not invited and would like to be, reach out to Mrs. Lowe and they may be added to the list.
Students will complete Day 4 of their packets. If you would like to pick up a lunch for your child, please call the school between 10:00 and 10:15 A.M. Meals will be ready for pick-up in the front office at 11:30 A.M.
Here is our February Newsletter:
NTID #3: 1/29/2026
If any student would like a lunch, please call the school at 304-836-5381 between 10:00 and 10:15 to let Mrs. Renee know. Meals will be ready for pick-up in the front office at 11:30 A.M.
Teachers will be available to answer questions about schoolwork beginning at 11 A.M. on Schoology (or using another preferred method of communication).
🎅🏼 Students are permitted to wear PJs to school and may bring a small blanket for the movie in the afternoon.
🎅🏼 The morning will be full of games and various Christmas activities.
🎅🏼 We have some high school students coming to assist, but if any parents would like to lead a station, they are welcome to come. (This is not like the Halloween party, as students will be moving throughout the building all morning.)
🎅🏼 There will be no school on Friday, December 19th, and we will see all students back at Ashford on Tuesday, January 6th.
Merry Christmas! 🎄❤️💚
Students in Grades 1, 4 and 5 had greater than 97% average daily attendance this week and may wear PJs to school tomorrow!

Permission slips will come home as soon as we hear back about Walmart as a vendor. The Shoney's trip will occur regardless of Walmart's approval, but we are keeping our fingers crossed that they have all they need to become a BCS vendor.
We know that a lot of parents have to take off work for these trips, so we decided to put the date out even though the Walmart portion is not fully planned. Thank you all for being so patient as we navigate these new processes!
This letter will be going home with students today. Preschool students and any student who is absent will receive one on Monday. Please send these back in ASAP for planning purposes.
Next week is packed full of exciting things for our students!
1. The Scholastic Book Fair will run all week! It begins Monday, 9/29/25 and will run through Friday, 10/3/25. 📚 You can also shop online or create an E Wallet here:
https://bookfairs.scholastic.com/.../ashfordrumbleelement...
2. Our first family data event of the year will take place on Monday, 9/29/25 from 4-6 P.M. 📊 Please drop in anytime between 4 P.M. and 5 P.M. We’d like for everyone to go to their classrooms and look through their children’s data folders. Then, feel free to shop the Book Fair!
At 5 P.M., everyone will meet in the gym to talk about the school’s goals this year, as well as where we are now. We will then have a hot dog dinner for the families who come. 🌭 (This data event is meant to be student led, not a parent-teacher conference. If you’d like a conference with your child’s teacher after seeing this data, please call to make an appointment!)
3. Picture Day is Tuesday, 9/30/25. If you plan to purchase pictures, please do so on-line or send money in the envelope that came home this week. 📸
