October is National Principals Month! National Principals Month is observed throughout the month of October each year. We are shining a spotlight on the transformative power of our school principals. The purpose of National Principals Month is to honor the dedication and hard work of school principals and to show appreciation for their contributions to the success of students, schools, and communities. Principals are a special group of leaders in our communities and part of the foundation of success for a campus and its students. Please take time to say "thank you" to our principals and tell them how much they are appreciated.
Thank You! Mrs. Dawn Albert (Rosenwald Elementary), Mr. Aiman Bayoumi (STEM Magnet Academy of Pointe Coupee), Mrs. Tiffany Davis (Rougon Elementary), Mrs. Karla Jack (Livonia High School), Mrs. Sara Taylor (Valverda Elementary), and Mrs. Carolyn Wells (Upper Pointe Coupee Elementary).
Rosenwald Elementary School participated in Fire Prevention Week. Fire Prevention Week took place October 8-14, with the theme for 2023 of "Cooking Safety starts with YOU." Cooking is the leading cause of home fires, and two out of every five home-fires begin in the kitchen, according to the National Fire Protection Association.
On Thursday, October 12, 2023, Pointe Coupee Parish Fire District #5 was at Rosenwald Elementary School. Students were able to meet Sparky the Fire Dog, participate in lessons on fire safety, practice a fire drill in the Kid's Safety House, participate in a Safety Poster Contest, and a lot more.
LEAP Achievement Breakfast to recognize students who scored basic or above on two or more areas on the 2023 Spring LEAP Assessment. Two students, Jace Lacey and Catyren Collin were recognized and awarded a certificate of achievement and a new chromebook for achieving basic or above on all four parts of the LEAP. A total of 18 students were invited to attend the breakfast.
5th graders at Rosenwald are excited to learn the hold used to slip and score pottery thru a hands on lesson. Mrs. Lisa Nelson (Pottery Artist) and Mrs. Gale Roy (Director of the Arts Council of Pointe Coupee) joined Ms. Kim Neal's art class to demonstrate and guide the students in creating their Flower Pot. Students are looking forward to seeing the their completed artwork!
Rosenwald went on a soft lockdown due to a medical emergency on campus this afternoon. All students remained in class during this lockdown and continued with daily instructional routines. There was no danger on campus at any time today. The lockdown has been lifted and classes resumed to normal operation.
Our Administrators, Instructional Coaches, and District Level Staff have completed a three day evaluator training with the National Institute for Excellence in Teaching!
During this time together, they have gained deep knowledge and understanding of the NIET Teaching and Learning Standards! This group is ready to help support teachers and promote student ownership in the classroom this school year!

Set aside dedicated time each day to read books, articles, or any other form of literature that interests you. Reading not only enhances your vocabulary and comprehension skills but also keeps your mind sharp and ready for the academic challenges ahead.
While it's important to engage in educational activities, it's equally crucial to maintain a balanced routine. Make time for physical activities, hobbies, socializing, and relaxation. A well-rounded routine will ensure you have a healthy mindset and the energy to excel academically when the new school year begins.
Our District has been gifted with free access to the literary Portal through May 2024! See Flyer for details!
