Come out, dress the theme, and cheer on our Bulldogs! 🏀💜💛

Rickman Elementary students will be sending out letters to veterans around the world in honor of Veterans Day.

We hope you all have a fun and safe Fall Break! We will see you all back on October 19th! 💜💛

What a FUN Fall Festival treat!
Our Fall Festival fundraising has been full of fun, laughter, and wonderful memories! A special congratulations to our 4th Grade Prince and Princess, Easton Bennett and Tatum Staggs. Tatum raised the most money in our fundraiser and earned the unforgettable honor of kissing a pig! 🐷💋 And the fun didn’t stop with our Princess! Even Easton and Miss. Budzilek got in on the action and shared a little sugar with our special four-legged guest! 😂🐷🐷💋
Thank you to everyone who donated, participated, and helped make this event such a success! We are so proud of our students and grateful for our amazing school community!
