We are so proud of our Rock Creek Students for collecting 91 Turkeys for the No Hunger Holiday! Team Dierker barely won! Students will get to see some turkey dancing tomorrow!





Gobble, Gobble!
Tomorrow is the final day of our No Hunger Turkey Drive. Please help us by dropping off frozen turkeys at morning arrival (Wednesday, November 15th).
How does this work?
*Drop off a frozen turkey during morning arrival.
*Hand the turkey(s) to a staff member
*Let the staff know which team the student is on- Team Dierker or Team Sandstrom.
We can't wait to hear how many turkeys we can collect, celebrate with students at lunch with the winning team principal dressed like a turkey and dancing the "Chicken Dance", and most importantly, support our local community.
Thank you for your support!




What an honor to pay tribute and celebrate our Veterans. Thank you for your service!




Kindergarten had a special guest on Monday, November 6th. Who could it have been? Well, it was Firefighter Ballmann! RCE Rockets loved getting to learn and ask questions firsthand to Mr. Ballmann. Thank you for sharing your time, expertise, and teaching us so much.
