We would like to congratulate our very own, Kylie Oswalt.  She is a Senior here at Reid Ross Classical School.  She was nominated by Mrs. Smallwood, our AP Literature and HS English teacher.  Mrs. Smallwood says as soon as she arrives each day, she volunteers to assist students  with classwork, tutoring and light paperwork.  In addition to helping Mrs. Smallwood, Kylie also offers help to other teachers.  She is very focused, quiet and is dedicated to helping others.  We are proud of you!!

We are seeking donations of small gifts, candy or other treats for goody bags.  As well as breakfast catered by donations of parents on Wednesday, May 7th.  Donations of sweet treats for Monday and/or Friday would also be appreciated by the teachers at lunch time.  Thanks to everyone who would like to help!  Please contact Mrs. Dean for any additional information at rebeccadean@ccs.k12.nc.us
