Hey, RHS Community!

As we count down the last days of summer, we'll host two final events. Swing by if you're free; we'd love to see you.

RHS Family Playdate @ Jordan Park

Hosted by the Redwood Heights Elementary PTA
Date: Saturday, August 3
Time: 02:00 PM – 04:00 PM
Location: Avenue Terrace (aka Jordan Park), 4369 Bennett Place off 35th Avenue, Oakland

Join our incoming families for a PTA-hosted playdate at Jordan Park. We'll provide drinks and light refreshments and let the kids run free. Want to make sure someone from your grade will be there? Post a note in your Konstella classroom chat and recruit a buddy or two. (Shout out to the incoming 2nd grade class for a very impressive showing last month!)

As a bonus, get your LiveScan Fingerprints during the playdate! Fingerprinting is one of the requirements for anyone who wants to be cleared through the Oakland Education Fund to be an on-campus volunteer or fieldtrip chaperone.

Interested? Cool - here's what to do:

• Sign up for a timeslot between 2pm and 4pm
• Bring a valid form of identification: a driver's license, any state DMV ID card, a Green card, or passport.
• Bring $44 to cover the scan fee and government fee, payable by Venmo, Zelle, check, or credit card.

Nobody will be turned away for lack of funds. Please don't hesitate to reach out to us at pta@redwoodheightspta.org if you would like assistance covering this fee; no questions asked.

RHS Community Garden Day

Hosted by the Garden Committee & Garden Instructor Celeste Winkel
Date: Sunday, August 4
Time: 10:00 AM – 12:00 PM
Location: The RHS teacher parking lot on 39th and Reinhardt

Join Ms. Celeste as we give the gardens a little refresh before the first day of school! Bring your gloves and tools and prepare for a satisfying weeding extravaganza.
