Gen Tex Week at RCE

Next week we celebrate Gen Tex Week at Rummel Creek.  It is a fun week of activities emphasizing careers and post-secondary education.

During the week, we encourage adults to share their post secondary education experiences with children.  You may have attended and / or graduated from a college or university, a junior college, a trade/ technical school or a specialized school such as the Police Academy.  You may also have had special seminars or on the job training since you have started your career.  Please take time to share with your children your memories and experiences of your education and training following high school.  At the same time share with them your hopes for their future education and careers.

Please join us in emphasizing the importance of post high school education by talking to your children about attending colleges and specialized schools.  To support our Gen Tex emphasis at RCE, please participate in the activities we have planned at RCE.
