The changing scene…

Our PTO has contributed to our school renovation project by funding a new school marquee for the entrance to our school. For those of you passing by, you may have noticed the bricks going up. Very soon, you’ll see information posted on our sign about current school events.
Our PTO has also contracted with a muralist to embellish our lobby and cafeteria walls. He will begin work in October. Stay tuned for pictures of this work.
One of the great changes at RBE that began in the 2006-2007 school year was the addition of a school-operated, after-school care program. Red Bank Elementary students can remain at school until 6:00 p.m. with structured activities. Our students and parents have loved this program because students do not have to make an additional transition to receive after school care. The program includes afternoon refreshments, physical activities, homework help, arts and crafts activities, and other enrichment games.
The director of our program is Mrs. Drusilla Smith. All of our employees in the after school program are either certified teachers or paraprofessionals. The program is in operation every school day. Let us know if you’d like more information.
