Reflections Contest

October is upon us, so it's time to think about the PTA Reflections Contest.  This is a wonderful opportunity for students to share their talents in music, art, writing and dance.  Check out the RCE PTA Website for details and forms.  The Due Date to RCE is October 24th.  (What are you doing on the school holiday October 13th....sounds like a great day to work on Reflections!)  Judging begins at RCE, and some students will move on to District Judging.  In past years, we've had students move to the state level.  What a great way to encourage students to share their love of the arts! (And their talents!)  Watch this animoto with information about this year's theme:  The World Would be a better place if....
I can't wait to see what students will do with this theme...it's a great theme!  So why are you still reading....let's see your photos, music compositions, dance and writing...I'm sure there is something you'd like to try!  Good luck on your entries!

KRCE - Student Broadcast

Our studio may be down for the months that we are at the transition campus, but the students are still learning how to make movies, work together as a team, and write scripts for a "show".  It just looks a little different this year.
Here is our September KRCE Crew.  They meet during lunch and recess on Tuesdays.  Currently they are working on videos for playground safety, procedures in the cafeteria, and general procedures around the school.
Each morning, two of the KRCE Crew do the morning announcements on the PA system.  They rotate during the week.  We are learning how to speak SLOWLY!
If you would like to keep up with our KRCE "On Demand," check out our website:  https://sites.google.com/a/springbranchisd.com/krce/   We are learning how to share our "fun" announcements in creative ways.  We're learning we can share more through the KRCE WebPage!
