100% Drive off and running!

The 100% Drive is moving full speed ahead.  There is no door knocking, no selling, and nothing to pick up.  You simply donate money and 100% of it goes back to Reuther Middle School.  Last year students purchased a gaga ball pit, corn hole boards and tables and chairs for the entrance with money raised from the 100% drive.  This year students are hoping to purchase soccer equipment.

Prizes:
  • $5 admission to Reuther’s Got Talent (RGT)
  • $10 RGT V.I.P. seating + leave class 2 minutes early the day of RGT
  • $25 movie and snack (plus the $10 & $5 prizes)
  • $50 Lunch party for you and 2 friends (plus the $25,$10 &$5 prizes)
  • $75 Gaga ball pit tournament.  You get a $5 gift card and the winner gets a $200 visa card (plus, you guessed it, all of the prizes above)
  • $100 Silly string a teacher at the pep assembly ( plus, ALL OF THE PRIZES LISTED ABOVE)
 
The person who donates the most will be the principal for the day.
The grade level that donates the most will get an electronic lunch for a week.
 
 Students can donate by bringing their envelopes to Mrs. Rossell’s room or by going online to this website.
 
The Drive will cruise along until September 28th.

PLEASE HELP US KEEP OUR STUDENTS SAFE ON THEIR WAY TO & FROM SCHOOL!

Picture
 Many Reuther students walk and ride their bikes to school.  Please be cautious when driving near our school and yield to them...It's the Law!   When you exit the Reuther pick up and drop off onto Culbertson and wait at the light to turn left onto Westbound Auburn Rd...you MUST YIELD to the students crossing at that crosswalk over Auburn. They have the walk sign when you get the green light, and the traffic rule is the driver MUST yield to the pedestrians.  Our school liaison officer will be patrolling to help enforce this and keep our kids safe.

Please keep these rules in the forefront...As a driver, you must yield:
  • To a pedestrian in a marked crosswalk.
  • To a pedestrian in the crosswalk, even if your traffic light is green.
  • To children near or in a school zone crosswalk when school is in session-- Be especially cautious as children may unexpectedly dart out into the street.
  •  To pedestrians with disabilities, including physical, hearing and visual disabilities.
  •  When turning at any intersection. This includes all turns, whether or not there are lights or traffic control devices present.
  •  When stopping at an intersection with a stop sign or a flashing red light.
  •  At an intersection with a flashing yellow light
  •  To a pedestrian in an unmarked crosswalk on the driver’s side of the roadway when no traffic control devices are present.
  • To a pedestrian who enters a crosswalk before the signal has changed.
  • To a pedestrian crossing the street from an alley, driveway, building or private road. ​

Student Safety--arrival & Dismissal

Picture
Picture

​The busiest times of the day are Student Arrival & Dismissal.  When students are racing to and from the bus and parents are lined up in the loop, it is important for us all to observe the following guidelines:
​​
  • Please do not walk in between the buses. This is extremely dangerous.
  • Please do not walk or cross through the bus loop by going into the road during this time. 
  • Please use the sidewalks between the parking lot, drop off loop and building entrances.  
  •  Please use the parent loop in the front or rear of the building for student drop off.  Please do not drop off or pick up your student in the front parking lot--this is very dangerous!  ​ 

As the weather changes and the mornings become darker, please be extra careful to look out for our students who are walking and riding their bikes to school.  While we are fortunate to have upgrades at the intersections of Auburn/Culbertson and Culbertson/Marlowe, it is still so important for those of us dropping off or picking up students to be mindful of those students who are walking!

​Student safety is always our priority!
Please join us in keeping all of our students safe!
