Hello Rincon families, this is Mr. White, Rincon Principal, with announcements for the coming week. You should have received a text message earlier today with information about the Rincon Yearbook currently on sale for $40. Please review each text link in that message which provides details about Yearbook ordering, submitting photos, and purchasing a dedication space in the Yearbook.
On Tuesday, February 4th, all Rincon students will be participating in our Career Day event. We will hold a Career Fair in the Multipurpose Room for all students to attend, and they will be receiving information about various future career opportunities from a series of volunteer presenters. Students have learned about their own interests and personality traits using the RIASEC assessment during their Advisory periods. This survey identifies the following self-identified interests for students: R for Realistic, I for Investigative, A for Artistic, S for Social, E for Enterprising, and C for Conventional. Our Career Fair will be a great opportunity for our students to get a glimpse into the world of work. Our 8th Grade students and staff will be participating in a walking field trip to Escondido High School on Thursday, February 6th. This will be another opportunity for our 8th graders to not only visit this high school campus, but also see various Career and Technical Education pathways they may choose to pursue in their high school futures and beyond.
Mark your calendars for the upcoming “Coffee with the Rincon Social Worker” event to be held this Friday, February 7th, beginning at 8:30 a.m. The focus of this gathering for parents and guardians will be to focus on Social Media use by Youth and Technology Safety. We hope you are able to attend!
As we begin a new month, this is an excellent time to remind your students that “Every Day Counts!” It’s a new month and a new chance to demonstrate positive attendance each and every day at Rincon Middle School. Remember that our “Perfect Attendance Challenge” is still underway in the month of February. Students demonstrating perfect attendance for the months of January and February will be rewarded with participation in an “ice cream bar” celebration to be scheduled in March.
Remember BULLDOGS B•A•R•K• (BELIEVE, ACHIEVE, RESPECT, KINDNESS)
