Message from the Principal
Learning Today. Leading Tomorrow. Always a Timberwolf!
Dear Ron Russell Families,
As the school year winds down, we want to take a moment to express our deepest gratitude to our families. Your partnership and encouragement have made all the difference. This group of students holds a special place in our hearts—they’ve been a true delight to learn and grow with, and we’re so excited to celebrate all of their hard work.
This is another reminder of our final events NEXT week!
Wednesday, June 10th: Field Day & 8th Grade Celebration
- Yearbook Distribution & Signing: If your student ordered a yearbook, they will be handed out in the morning. Students can still order on the Jostens website until they run out!
- Fun Day (1:00 PM – 3:00 PM): A fun afternoon of outdoor activities.
- Note on Eligibility: To participate in Field Day, students must have at least 85% attendance, fewer than 2 behavior referrals, and no out-of-school suspensions.
- 8th Grade Celebration: 8th graders will join us for a special night featuring a DJ, a catered dinner, and a photo booth! While most students choose to dress up nicely for this event, please note that formal wear is not required—we just want everyone to come ready to celebrate!
Thursday, June 11th: Last Day of School
- Awards Recognition & Assembly: We will host our final end-of-year assembly to honor our students’ achievements.
- Early Dismissal: Please note that students will be officially dismissed for the summer at 10:15 AM.
Let’s bring it home! We have one week left to celebrate this amazing crew, so let’s keep the energy high and finish this school year on the highest note possible.
Go Timberwolves!
