Text Box: As you know, I will be going on maternity leave shortly.  I would like to  introduce Mr. Gene Miller, who will be filling in for me while I am gone.  Mr. Miller plans on being in the elementary school on Tuesdays and Thursdays during my leave.  I plan on being in the building most Fridays.  Please do not hesitate to touch base with either one of us if you have any questions or concerns.  ~Mrs. Christensen   I am pleased to become a temporary part of the RTR Elementary staff. I decided to retire from my principalship at Edgerton Public last June after spending 34 years involved in education; twenty-four years as part of the teaching staff and the past ten as K-12 Principal. I have thoroughly enjoyed the many years that I have spent with students and educators. I particularly like working with elementary students because of their boundless energy and their desire to learn and do well. I wish Mrs. Christensen well and look forward to the time I will spend at RTR Elementary.   ~Mr. Miller   Text Box: IMPORTANT NEWS FROM YOUR ELEMENTARY SCHOOL Text Box: RTR Elementary Amy Christensen, Principal 441 Duluth Avenue Ruthton, MN 56170 Phone: 507-658-3301 1-800-430-6429 Fax: 507-658-3589 Text Box: COMING SOON: Feb. 15      Midterm                   PTSA Sock Hop, 7 to 8:30pm Feb. 18      NO SCHOOL Feb. 19      After School AR/Computer Class                   After School Reading Class Feb. 25      After School Science Class                   After School Math Class Feb. 26      After School 4-H Class Feb. 27      Spring Pictures Mar. 3        After School Science Class                   After School Reading Class                   PTSA Meeting – Pizza Ranch Mar. 4        After School St. Patrick’s Day Craft Mar. 7        Celebrate “I Love To Read”                   Pre School Screening     Text Box: Friday Basketball Game N/S Conference Playoff Between the North Champion - Renville County West and South Champion  -RTR will be held at  RTR High School at 7:00 pm, Friday, February 15.   Activity passes WILL NOT work for tonight’s basketball game.  All people planning on attending will need to pay for the game.   Text Box: There will be NO SCHOOL on Monday, Feb. 18th.
