MIDDLE SCHOOL INFORMATION…
5th grade parents, the middle school staff is looking forward
to working with you and your children as they continue their
educational journey with the Roseville Community School
District. The teachers and staff have dedicated themselves to
providing a nurturing, yet challenging learning environment
for all children. While we will be sending you more
information over the summer, we wanted to take the time
now to provide you with a few important pieces of
information.
The RMS New Student Orientation will be held Thursday,
August 20, 2015. 6th graders will attend from 9:00 -11:30
a.m. and new 7th graders will attend from 12:30 – 2:30 p.m.
Information on bussing will be sent over the summer. At
orientation, students will receive their schedule, locker
assignment, school pictures will be taken, and school I.D.
cards will be issued. Parents are welcome to attend and we
will be offering a new middle school parent orientation
during our student orientation sessions.
SAFETY OF THE YEAR!
Congratulations to Michael Phillips, our
Kaiser Safety of the Year! Michael has
done an outstanding job all year keeping
our students safe as they go to and from
school each day. Special thanks to Michael
and to all the students that served as Safety
Patrol – we appreciate your efforts!
According to a recent survey your child took, 83% of
students who will be new to middle school this fall are
unfamiliar with how to use a combination lock. One of the
best things you can do as a parent to help ease middle school
anxiety is provide the opportunity for your child to practice
using a combination lock this summer. We also encourage
you and your child to explore our website to learn more about
the middle school and all of the opportunities that we have.
Students who will be attending EMS next year will have
orientation on August 28th; watch for more details in the mail.
We look forward to seeing you this upcoming school year!
Congratulations to the following parents who were elected as
PTO Officers for the 2015/2016 and 2016/2017 school year:
President:
Kristin Sides
MEDICATION
Treasurer:
If your child received prescription or over the counter
medication at school this year, please arrange to pick it
up by June 12, 2015. Parents are reminded that all
medication should be picked up at the office by an adult.
Any medication left at school will be disposed of.
We appreciate your involvement and dedication to Kaiser
Elementary School!

MISSION STATEMENTS
LAST DAY OF SCHOOL!
The last day of school is Wednesday, June 10, 2015.
Dismissal will be at 10:15 a.m. on both Tuesday, 6/9/15
and Wednesday, 6/10/15.
We are asking for parents’ assistance in dealing with the last
day of school potential problems. PLEASE make sure your
child does not bring shaving cream, silly string or other
similar items to school or near the school grounds. While
some students may find these “fun,” the majority of students
do not wish to get caught in the crossfire, and some may
also be allergic to these items. The penalty for possessing
such items on school property will be a school suspension at
the beginning of the 2015/2016 school year. Suspensions
will be honored by other buildings in the district and by
other districts. We also ask that students not bring
backpacks to school on 6/10/15.
Thank you for your cooperation.

How to Find Free Summer Activities for Children
SUMMER BIRTHDAYS
Check with your local ice cream vendors for summer specials. Going out for ice cream can often top the list of fun summer
activities for children! Coldstone Creamery offers a birthday club where children can receive a coupon for a free ice cream
cone on their birthday. These particular specials run all year, but this free summer activity is so much more fun when it's hot
outside!
WWW.KIDSBOWLFREE.COM
Get your children excited about bowling! Kids Bowl Free is another one of the many free activities for children available this
summer. This is a program where participating bowling centers around the United States offer children (within a particular
age limit) the opportunity to register for two free games a day, all summer long! See the link at the end of this article to find a
participating bowling center in your area. You can also check with your local skating rinks for similar types of free activities
or even suggest one if it is not already available in your area.
CHILDREN'S MUSEUM
Plan to visit the Children's Museum in your city. The Children's Museum has partnered up with Target and offers a Target
Free Tuesday every month for children to visit the museum. Free tickets are available for pickup at the museum on the day
of your visit. It is good to get in line early because tickets are given out on a first-come, first-served basis and these types of
free activities get very busy during the summer. The times vary at each location so check with the Children's Museum in
your city for complete details. There are tons of activities for children to do at the Children's Museum!
$1.00 MOVIES
Head to the movie theater for some mid-morning fun! AMC Theaters offers a summer movie camp for children on
Wednesdays at ten AM. All tickets are just one dollar and the proceeds go to charity. Get there early because camps
frequent these free summer activities and the tickets generally go very quickly. Check their website for movie line-ups and
dates. (See link below.) Other theaters may have similar summer activities for children as well.
LOCAL LIBRARY
Check with your local library for their schedule of free activities for children and summer events. They often include puppet
shows, story times, arts and crafts sessions, live theater, reading challenges, and book festivals. They are just about always
free and can be lots of fun. You won't have to travel far and both you and your children will get a nice change of pace. Many
times they will have their schedule of activities posted on their website.
SOCIAL NETWORKING SITES
Consider joining an online social networking site or discussion board that is geared towards parenting, children, and
families. You can find posts about free summer activities for children all over the web! People post free and low cost events
on these type of sites all the time. You can find out about things going on right in your own city that would make perfect
summer activities for your children! Have a great summer!
