Before we officially begin winter break, we want to take a moment to celebrate the amazing students we have at RPS! During their annual fundraising competitions, our high school students raised a combined $123,077.95 for local organizations! Thank you, students, for all your hard work and effort to invest back into our community.
Mrs. Howes' 3rd graders were practicing their geometry skills today by comparing and contrasting quadrilaterals with Venn diagrams and creating their class geometry city. Math is fun!

Rochester Public Music's Sound School residency brought Tuyvergen Band to Folwell this afternoon. They presented their Mongolian music to our K-5 students. Our Folwell students loved the different music and their throat singing and clapped right along to the music.
