As a school director, my job is to be a futurist.

I have to predict what the future is bringing, and craft the curriculum with that in mind.

The rate of change in our society is so fast, this requires constant research, innovation, and educated guessing.

It also requires courage. ~Renee

Halloween Celebration and Parade

Happy Halloween!

If you were on Rainbow’s campus today, you might have been spooked.

Ghosts and goblins roamed the forest, flanked by aliens, tigers, bears, wizards and other magical creatures for the most frightful day of the year: HALLOWEEN!

First, Kindergarten sang some ghostly songs. Preschool chimed in, too.

Then each grade paraded around, valiantly confronting whatever bear, cupid, witch orΒ robot they encountered alongΒ the way…

Then students departed the meeting grounds in search of spooky treats in not-so-scary places!
