Fall Conferences
We are excited to announce that sign-ups for Parent-Teacher Conferences are available on Parent Square TODAY! Please look for a Parent Square message from your child's teacher. We encourage you to register as soon as possible to secure a convenient time to meet with your child's teacher.
Conferences will take place on:
Monday, November 23th, from 4:10 PM - 7:00 PM
Tuesday, November 24th, from 7:30 AM - 7:00 PM
To make it easier for families with more than one child, the online scheduling system allows you to coordinate times, so you can arrange back-to-back conferences without needing to make multiple trips to the school.
Our goal is to connect with 100% of our parents, as these conferences are essential to your child’s success. We recognize that schedules may be tight, and travel plans may be set, but we ask that you make every effort to secure a time within these designated days. It can be challenging for our staff to accommodate meetings outside of these hours, so we truly appreciate your commitment to making time for this important conversation.
Thank you for being a dedicated partner in your child’s education. Working together—parents, teachers, and students—we can create the foundation for your child’s success. We look forward to meeting with you and continuing our partnership in learning.
4th Annual Turkey Trot
The 4th Annual Turkey Trot is coming up soon! The Parent Teacher Club here at RF is excited to host this event that has quickly become a holiday tradition. We'd love to have as many RF families participating- either through signing up for the race or signing up to volunteer. The Turkey Trot is Thanksgiving morning, November 26th at 8:30am for the 5K and 8:40am for the 1-mile fun run/walk. Please use the link 4th Annual Turkey Trot- Robert Frost PTC to sign up for the race or email at info@robertfrostptc.org to sign up for a volunteer shift (lots of options between 7:30am-11:30am). We need another 5-6 volunteers so take a look at your calendar. Thank you all in advance for your support of this great event. All participants and volunteers will receive a raffle ticket to place in a prize box with some amazing prizes! RF students and staff get two tickets!
Fall Music Performance
Please join us for our 2nd/3rd grade Fall Performance!
As a reminder, this performance is for all students in Mrs. Denny, Mrs. Brown, Mrs. Brautigam and Mrs. Chapin's classes.
(Miss Mathis's class will perform in the spring).
When:
Monday, November 16th @ 6pm
Call Time:
5:30-5:45pm
Where:
First Baptist Church (next to Robert Frost)
What to Wear?! "Fall Festive"
The attached “Fall Festive” flyer gives some great ideas on what to wear.
It is more important that your child attends the performance vs what they
choose to wear. If they do not have any "Fall Festive" attire, wearing
Robert Frost gear is absolutely fine! Most students will also be provided a fall themed item to wear/hold during their performance.
As always, please let me know if I have missed anything! I am very excited to showcase what your kiddos have been working on this fall!
Thank you, Miss Cram

Dear Robert Frost Families,
Again this year, the Silver Falls School District has partnered with YouthTruth—a nonprofit organization that supports hundreds of schools and districts across the country—to gather anonymous input from families about school culture, engagement, relationships, communication, school safety, resources, and more.
WE NEED YOUR VOICE — AND IT MATTERS!
Family feedback is one of the most important tools we have to understand what’s working well and where we can grow. Our goal is to have the highest possible parent participation, because the more families who share their perspective, the better we can support our students and school community.
Please take 15 minutes to help us by completing this survey. Your input is important to help guide improvement in our school and district.
Take the Family Survey between now and November 20th by clicking this link: ytsurvey.org/sfsdfamily26
Please note:
The survey needs to be completed in one sitting.
We ask that one member of each household fill out the survey.
If you have more than one child who attends the same school, you may respond to the survey multiple times - one time per child.
If you write any comments, please do not include your name or anything else that might identify you. Your responses are anonymous, and they will be combined with the responses of other parents and guardians before being shared back with school and district leadership.
We appreciate and take to heart clear, thoughtful comments that are communicated respectfully.
Your feedback is really helpful to us at Robert Frost Elementary. Thanks for taking the time to complete this survey, and please let us know if you have any questions.
