What An Amazing November!

A great, big THANK YOU goes out to our Rocket Community for all of your support in the month of November! You came out in full force to support our Rockets. Our annual Pfall Pfreak Out was a HUGE success thanks to all of you. We raised $12,444 for RLES, and it was our highest grossing Fall Fundraiser to date! Between our Fall Dance and Pfall Pfreak Out, we were able to donate $2300 to the Tompkins family to support their daughter Ellie's fight against childhood leukemia.

We also showed our commitment to warming kids from the bus stop and beyond by participating in the Coats for Kids Coat Drive Competition.  RLES set a goal for our school of donating 500 coats. Our Rocket Families absolutely crushed that goal by donating 1033 coats!  Rowe Lane was honored by being the top Elementary School for donations for the second time in the past three years. Way to bring the banner back to RLES!  Special thanks goes out to Ms. Berela for her leadership as well as Daisy Troop 45615 for all their help counting and collecting the donations.

December brings in one of our most favorite events...the Holiday Shoppe. We are excited to be able to help get our students in the spirit of giving. We will need some adult volunteers to help these few days run smoothly. If you have some time available during the day from Monday 12/17 thru Thursday 12/20, please sign up to help students with their holiday shopping using the following link:

Our Spirit Night planned for December is our Chick-Fil-A Day on Thursday 12/13. Stop by the Chick-Fil-A in Pflugerville and let them know that you are there for Rowe Lane. The more people we have stop by, the higher the percentage we earn back to our school!
