    As we reflect on December 2025, the Rex Road Elementary PTA would like to extend our sincere thanks for your generous support. Your contributions of time, resources, and enthusiasm helped make our events and initiatives successful and strengthened our school community in meaningful ways.

    We are truly grateful for your continued partnership and commitment to our students, staff, and school. Your support allows the PTA to enhance programs, provide valuable resources, and create positive experiences for all students.

    As we welcome the new year, we wish you and your families a happy, healthy, and joyful New Year. We look forward to continuing to work together in 2026 to support Rex Road Elementary.

    We received a special thanks from our extensionists for your generous donations and we wanted to share it with our families. 


    Dear Parents,

    Thank you so much for the incredibly generous Christmas gifts to our extension team. Your thoughtfulness and support truly mean more to us than words can describe. We are so grateful to partner with such kind and supportive families. Your generosity not only made our holiday season brighter but also reminded us how fortunate we are to work with students and parents who value and appreciate our work. It is a blessing to be a part of such a caring school community. Wishing you and your family a joyful holiday season and happy new year!

    Sincerely,

    Rex Rd Extension Team

    🍦 JT’s Creamery Spirit Night  March 28th - 3:00pm–9:00 pm

    Join the PTA on Friday, March 28 from 3:00 to 9:00 pm at JT’s Creamery for Rex Road Elementary’s Ice Cream March Madness Spirit Night.


    JT’s is hosting a friendly competition between local elementary schools throughout March, and March 28 is Rex Road’s day to shine. A portion of all sales during that time will be donated back to our school, and the school with the highest sales will win the overall competition and earn some serious bragging rights.


    To make our day even more special, students will be creating their own ice cream flavor ideas, and our school will choose a winning flavor that will be featured and sold at JT’s on our Spirit Night.


    Bring your family and friends, wear your Rex Road spirit wear, and help show just how much school spirit we have, all while enjoying some delicious ice cream. Thank you for supporting the Rex Road PTA. We hope to see you there.

    Thank you for being such an important part of the Rex Road Royals community. We can’t wait to see you at our upcoming events!
