Randolph Elementary

Virginia weather at its finest—80 degrees one day, snow the next! ❄️🚌 Randolph Elementary students headed home today with a little winter magic in the air.

❤️ February 6th is National Wear Red Day! ❤️ Students and staff are invited to wear red to school as we show our support for heart health awareness. Let’s fill Randolph Elementary with red and celebrate healthy hearts together!

Randolph Elementary is closed on Friday due to winter weather. Enjoy the day at home—build a snowman, cozy up with a good book, and stay safe and warm. We’ll see our Roadrunners back soon! ❄️

Something exciting is happening after we return from Winter Break! Thanks to some of our amazing Head of School committee members for participating in our after school “Wrap Party.” A lovely surprise awaits in 2026!

Thank you PTA for the sweet treat from the Roadrunner Raise!

The Garden Club at RES is thriving! Members had a great time cleaning up the gardens, harvesting veggies and herbs, then enjoying fresh bread dipped in herbs, balsamic, and olive oil! #weRrandolph

Our amazing Safety Patrollers are leading the way for Bullying Prevention Month! They painted our school rock with a powerful message — “Be Kind” — to remind everyone that kindness matters. Let’s keep spreading positivity, one kind word at a time!

Our kindergarteners took learning outside today! They had a blast with Ms. Alvis and Ms. Austin reviewing shapes and practicing their writing with colorful chalk on the sidewalks. Chalk + sunshine = lots of smiles and learning fun!

Some special guests visited RES in honor of Patriots' Day. We are grateful to them for taking a moment to share about the importance of remembrance, unity, and resilience. ❤️🤍💙

Today, Randolph Elementary safety patrols proudly raised the Freedom Flag in honor of September 11. Each element of the flag is a reminder of the lives lost, the heroes who served, and the strength of our nation. ❤️🤍💙

The RES Cafeteria serving line has been visually transformed into a more welcoming, kid-friendly experience. This year, students are enjoying new serving counters and steam equipment!
