Welcome
Hello Roland Rogers’ School Families,
Welcome to the 2017-2018 school year! Roland Rogers Elementary School is an innovative, productive, successful
Professional Learning Community where the faculty, staff, parents and the administration work collaboratively to increase
student achievement, challenge our students academically, build good citizenship and recognize the cultural diversity of the
school. We are eager to continue all of the educational programs which have used to enhance student learning and
citizenship such as; Roland’s Morning Academic Support program, Bullying Busting lessons, The Good Citizen program,
STARRs, Anti-Bullying Awareness activities, the Roland Reads and Roland Reads, Jr. Programs. Last year 106 Kindergarten, 1st,
2nd & 3rd grade students participated in the Roland Reads, Jr. Program. Once again, ALL of our 4th, 5th & 6th grade students
participated in the Roland Reads program, reading a total of 2,481 books independently and during our Friday Book Clubs!
Roland Roger’s has an “open door” policy when it comes to inviting parents into the school and classrooms for programs,
school events and special occasions. This year we are continuing this practice and expanding opportunities for parents to
become more involved within the school community, and better informed through our “Partnering with Parents” initiative
(Click here for more information about “Partnering with Parents” initiative)
We pride ourselves on working towards providing a bully-free climate, collaborative relationships with parents and
providing an environment where students are important and taught the value of hard work and charity. Our Character
Education Theme this year is “Acts of Kindness.” Our school community has exhibited acts of kindness through our benevolent
efforts that have supported various charitable organizations such as; Heart Association, Leukemia & Lymphoma, Beacon
Church’s food drive, Galloway’s Let Us Eat Food Program, The Atlantic City Rescue Mission and in 2017, we raised over $23,350
for St. Baldrick’s Children’s Cancer Research Foundation!
We look forward to continuing our academic and social successes – but we cannot accomplish this by ourselves, we need
YOU, our parents! Our parents and community volunteers play an enormous role in the success our school so please get
involved and help us help your child succeed!
