Hi Everybody,
Our students and teachers all deserve this Labor Day
holiday after working so hard to start such a smooth
school year! When we return next week, our September
focus on learning will turn our Kindergarteners into
scientists studying the scientific method; 1st graders into
Rockin’ Readin’ Turtles; 2nd graders into cartographers
mapping the world’s oceans and continents; 3rd graders
into pilots soaring the skies with model planes; 4th graders
into explorers of Florida’s lands and people; and 5th
graders into physicists analyzing the properties of matter.
The last week of September will bring Celebrate Freedom
Week (Florida Statute 1003.421), during which the
children learn about these words in the Declaration of
Independence: “We hold these truths to be self-evident,
that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by
their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among
these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. That to
secure these rights, governments are instituted among
men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the
governed.”
Thank you parents, PTO and community partners for
teaming with us to create an amazing resource where
children Learn, Think and Create!
Your Principal, Caty Van Housen
Upcoming Events Principal’s Message
Students are embracing our focus on kindness this year, showing pride in joining the Kindness
Crew, and even sharing the message on their clothing!

More than 90% of our parents attended Open House the last week of August!
The partnership between teachersand parents is the best way to ensurean excellent educational experience
for all of our children!
Do your kids love to read Sunshine State books?Mr. Edeker needs your help! The new Sunshine State books are coming into our Media Center, but before students can check them out, they must be covered in contact paper to make them more durable and extend their shelf life. If you would be willing to wrap a few books, please email Mr. Edeker at [email protected]
This is a project that can be done on your own time at
home!
Bike Riders Must Wear Helmets!In many ways, being a school on the AIA is
challenging. The traffic is very real and very
present, especially as the kids are arriving
and leaving school. We are noticing bikers
without helmets on, and it worries us greatly.
There is a bike helmet law. All people under
the age of 16 must wear a helmet. “A bicycle
rider or passenger who is under 16 years of
age must wear a bicycle helmet that is
properly fitted and is fastened securely upon
the passenger’s head by a strap and that
meets the federal safety standard for bicycle
helmets, final rule, 16 C.F.R. part 1203.”
Our priority is your child’s safety. Please
insist your bike rider wear a helmet!
Thank you PTO forour new swings
on the front playground!
Kids of CharacterOn Sept. 12th, we’ll hold our first
Kids of Character breakfast to honor
students who exemplify the six Pillars
of Character: Trustworthiness,
Respect, Responsibility, Fairness,
Caring & Citizenship. Thank you PTO
& Community Partner Chic Fil-A for
helping us teach that Manners Matter.
Students

The Rawlings Café was
turned into a movie
theater for our first-ever
PTO Shell-ebration!
Coastal Luxury Outdoors and PVPV/Rawlings PTO are excited to announce that the 8th
annual Turtle Trot Fund Run will take place Thursday, October 11th!
The Turtle Trot is the only school sponsored fundraiser that encourages both physical fitness
and support for the school. It teaches our students teamwork and community engagement.
100% of the funds raised by our students will be used to support our school! Please join us
and ensure this annual event is a success! An information packet will come home with your
student following a pep rally on September 27th.
For now, please keep these important dates in mind:
September 27th- Pep Rally (students only)
September 27-October 12th- students collect funds from friends and family
October 11th - Turtle Trot Fund Run (Parents welcome)
If you are new to the school or not sure what the Turtle Trot is, you are about to experience one
of the most exciting days of the school year! It is our single and largest fundraiser of the year!
Beginning on September 27, each student will collect donations from generous family and
friends. On Thursday, October 11, each grade level will have the opportunity to come to the
“track” outdoors and trot themselves to the finish line! Parents are welcome to line the track
and cheer as their “turtles” complete the race and help PVPV/Rawlings raise money for two
very exciting projects! Stay tuned for the project reveals September 27!
