SAVE THE DATE! We will start our kindness journey on August 30! 👀Be on the lookout for registration info coming home today!
What is Raise Craze? Raise Craze is an online platform enabling students to set up secure, custom websites where they request donations via email, text, or social. During the fundraiser, students pay it forward by completing Acts of Kindness for others.


Thank you to Mr. Dowell for challenging our students in math class to share their thinking and collaborate as mathematicians!






We are kicking off with Raise Craze THIS FRIDAY!


Did you know spirit events help us send our students on amazing field trips each year? Thank you for coming out and having fun at Handel's and helping us pay it forward for our kids! We appreciate your support.






Thank you for joining us on celebrating back-to-school with ice cream and friends! Handel's Spirit Week was a success!








Our community showed up BIG at our back-to-school Handel's Spirit week! Thank you for supporting RJE!











Dominium and Consequi spent time during our Friday House lessons learning what it means to fill someone's bucket! We focused on the Jaguar Essential, "Be kind with your hands, feet, words, and actions."







At RJE we ROAR ❤️💜💙💚
Each week, we focus on one of our house essentials to practice being the best person we can be! This week's essential was: Be kind with your hands, feet, words, and actions.
Students in every class worked hard all week to show this essential in the classroom, hallways, specials, recess and cafe! One student was selected to earn the weekly Essential Trophy from each class and got to come shop the ROAR store! Next week it'll be a new essential and we look forward to seeing who will be chosen from each class!
Essential Trophy Thursdays might be our new favorite addition to the house system this year!







“It was so much fun to feel the texture of the cornstarch and water mixture. At first I saw it and thought it was a solid. Then I touched it, and it melted right in my hand like it was water. Those corn starch particles suspended in the water is so crazy.” ~RJE 5th Grader
The RJE 5th grade Science classes explored phenomena involving TEKS 5.6A to launch the first Unit of the year.




At Reuben Johnson Elementary, they say that they are "Four Houses, One Family," and on Friday, Aug. 2, Principal Kristen Patterson, AP Ebonie Walls and the RJE staff (along with help from MHS cheerleaders) held their 2nd annual RJE House Sorting Rally to place new students in the house of Dominium (Purple), Consequi (Blue), Paratus (Green) or Integritas (Red). Each student received a bracelet and a shirt—and an instant point of connection with other RJE students throughout the school! Check out more photos of the fun on the MISD Facebook page!











House sorting fun ended with House popsicle parties. Every student received a House sorting bracelet and a House shirt. Thank you to RJE PTA and our amazing sponsors for helping our students and staff color up! Four Houses ❤️💜💙💚 One Family 💛🖤🐾
