📣 Rayburn Families

We’re excited to announce a new incentive program—Rayburn Students of the Week! 🌟

Each week, classroom teachers will recognize one outstanding student who meets all of the following criteria:
✅ Perfect attendance for the entire week
✅ No tardies
✅ No early pick-ups
✅ No referrals or DDFs

If your child is selected, they will receive a special honor and bring home an invitation for two guests to join them for lunch in the Library on Friday. 🍎💌

At Rayburn, we believe student success is a team effort—school, students, and families working together! Thank you for making sure your children are here all day, every day, and on time. Every day counts, and even one missed day means 7 hours of valuable learning that’s difficult to make up.

We are so grateful for your continued support in helping every Rocket shine! 🚀✨
