We all have a lot more in common than we sometimes realize. Today, students in Mrs. Ott’s class played a “get to know you game”. They learned they’re all unique, yet together, have something in common and make a great team! #KidsAreOurCustomers. #RRGSD1stDay.
Thanks to New Testament Christian Church and Pastor Daniel West for your donations today to our students. #RRGSDCommunity #KidsAreOurCustomers
