Teacher Appreciation Day 05-09-12

Special thanks to Juniors Kailey Fischer, Brittney Rangel, and Madison Daunt
of the Pirate SGA for the special treat they had for teachers Wednesday.
It's always good to see such happy and eager smiling faces knowing
that they represent the cream of the crop of Pirates here at the River.

New Principal for the River

Attached is the latest timeline for the selection of the Pirate Family's new principal.
Please take note that on June 4 is the community forum and normally it consists
of two groups (community & staff) in two separate rooms with the 3 finalists rotating
in the rooms. The River needs you there! Your involvement is vital in selecting
the new Captain for the Pirate Family. Jim Pauley - Principal

American Red Cross has several summer opportunities for community service
that might interest High School students. These opportunities are available in
the Lakewood Ranch area as well as in west Bradenton, so students can
choose those most convenient.

In particular we have a week long Disaster Camp - I've attached a flyer.
This experience would be great for those considering a career in the
health occupations or military or emergency management or first
responders fields.

We also offer opportunities for teens aged 15 and up to become certified
Red Cross instructors and to teach first aid and disaster preparedness to
elementary aged students - flyer attached. This opportunity is perfect for
those who might be interested in teaching or in the health fields.

For more information students should contact American Red Cross at
941-792-8686 or email
[ mailto:tappd@manateeredcross.org ]tappd@manateeredcross.org
or online at [ http://www.facebook.com/manateeredcrossyouth ]
