We're delighted to announce that The Goochland Restaurant is offering a special reading incentive program for RES students! Here's how to participate: *Students will receive a bookmark to track their reading progress. *After reading 8 books, they can bring their completed bookmark to The Goochland Restaurant to receive... **one FREE drink AND their choice of either fries, onion rings, or a cookie! The best news is that once students earn this reward, they can visit our school librarian to receive an additional bookmark to continue reading and earning some tasty rewards!

RES celebrated Plaid Day today in honor of our Assistant Superintendent, Dr. Geyer. For 13 years, Dr. Geyer has visited Randolph during the month of December to read one of his favorite winter holiday books - and he has always worn plaid pants! Students and teachers alike wore their festive plaid attire, creating a warm and cheerful atmosphere. It was a wonderful way to spread joy throughout the school community.
