Our 4th graders concluded their Botany study with a learning celebration today! They spent the past few days working hard on presentations about plant parts, life cycles, pollination, germination, and more. Families were also treated to a sing-a-long and shared a plant-based meal with their students for lunch. These kids have learned so much and we can't wait to see what they learn next!

Our 5th grade students have expanded their knowled

Our 5th grade students have expanded their knowledge of waterways and macroinvertebrates over the course of two immersive educational experiences provided by @river.link . Riverlink brought a stream table to the classroom and students learned expanded their knowledge about rivers, erosion, and flooding through hands-on investigations. Our fifth graders also ventured to West Asheville Park to capture and identify macroinvertebrates and also to do some water testing to determine the health of the creek. Rainbow 5th grade students tested the water for things like phosphate, pH, turbidity and more. They found many sensitive indicator species like salamander and stonefly larvae in addition to water beetles, crayfish, and fish - all of which inform us that the creek is in good health!

We are grateful to @river.link for partnering with our 5th grade students and teachers in support of their French Broad River and Watershed thematic learning unit. #riverlink #mentaldomain #weloverainbowcommunityschool #ashevile #ashevillenc #wnc #828isgreat #westasheville #westernnorthcarolina #ashevillelocal #westashevillelife #westashevillelove #education #holisticeducators #wncmountains #ashevilleareaschools

Did you happen to catch our third graders performing with Billy Jonas at LEAF yesterday?!

Our third grade class had a wonderful opportunity to work with Billy Jonas through the LEAF Visiting Artist Teaching Residency program. During their time in class with Billy, they collaborated to write a song titled "Take Care of the World" and created handmade percussion instruments. They performed their song in front of a crowd at the Lake Eden Arts Festival yesterday and rocked it! Thank you so much to @billyjonasmusic and @leafglobalarts for making this experience magical for our students.

It's Fall Break! RCS will be closed for Fall Break

It's Fall Break! RCS will be closed for Fall Break through Friday, October 17th. We hope you have an opportunity to get outside to spend some time in nature during your time off. Last week, our first graders hiked the Buck Springs Trail to kick off their Appalachian Unit. We hope you are inspired by these photos of their time there!
