📚Families learning together at Hawthorne Elementary!

Hawthorne Elementary recently kicked off its first Family Engagement Night of the school year with a Welcome Back celebration!

Families had the opportunity to participate in educational activities alongside their children while getting a closer look at some of the learning and experiences students enjoy as part of their daily RGEC program. ✏️

These special evenings are about more than activities; they’re an opportunity to bring families, students, and staff together and strengthen the connections that help our students thrive.

Thank you to our Hawthorne Elementary RGEC team and all of the families who joined us for a wonderful evening! 💙

🪇 Celebrating Hispanic Heritage Month at La Promesa Elementary!

Students and families recently came together for La Promesa Elementary School’s Hispanic Heritage Family Engagement Night, celebrating culture, traditions, and history through fun, hands-on activities.

From creating colorful maracas and sombreros to learning more about Hispanic heritage, the evening was filled with creativity, connection, and opportunities for families to learn and celebrate together. We love seeing our RGEC communities create meaningful experiences that bring students and families together while celebrating the cultures and traditions that make our communities so special.

Thank you to the La Promesa team and all of the families who participated in such a wonderful evening!

Don't wait until your Child Care Assistance contract expires! / ¡No espere hasta que venza su contrato de Asistencia de Cuidado Infantil!

ECECD Child Care Assistance contracts have an expiration date. To help avoid a gap in your child's care, families should begin the renewal process at least one month before their current contract expires. For your renewal, ECECD requires a new application and current proof of income. Although Universal Child Care does not have income limits, current income documentation is still required as part of ECECD's renewal process.

📌 Remember: Renewal applications and income documentation are submitted to ECECD, not RGEC. And we know the acronyms can be confusing! Here's an easy way to remember the difference:
🏛️ ECECD is the State agency that determines eligibility, processes applications and renewals, and issues your Child Care Assistance contract.
💚 RGEC is your child care provider, providing your child's day-to-day program and care.

⏰ ¡No espere hasta que venza su contrato de Asistencia de Cuidado Infantil! Los contratos de Asistencia de Cuidado Infantil de ECECD tienen una fecha de vencimiento. Para ayudar a evitar una interrupción en el cuidado de su hijo, las familias deben comenzar el proceso de renovación al menos un mes antes de que venza su contrato actual. Para renovar, ECECD requiere una nueva solicitud y comprobante de ingresos actual. Aunque el Cuidado Infantil Universal no tiene límites de ingresos, la documentación de ingresos actual sigue siendo parte del proceso de renovación de ECECD.

📌 Recuerde: las solicitudes y documentos de renovación se envían a ECECD, no a RGEC.
🏛️ ECECD es la agencia estatal que determina la elegibilidad, procesa solicitudes y renovaciones, y emite su contrato de asistencia.
💚 RGEC es su proveedor de cuidado infantil y brinda el programa y cuidado diario de su hijo.

Learning beyond the classroom!

Another highlight from our RGEC summer programs was a field trip to the New Mexico Museum of Natural History & Science, where students from several of our programs had the opportunity to explore, learn, and experience science and New Mexico’s natural history in a whole new way. From discovering something new to simply enjoying the day with friends, experiences like these help make summer programming both educational and fun. 💚

We’re grateful to be able to provide our students with opportunities to learn, explore, and make memories together!

🌟 Great job, Estancia Valley!
Our students are going above and beyond to help others and show kindness.
Each time a student does something kind or helpful, they get to add a rock to the “You Rock!” jar.
They’re working together to fill the jar and earn a special surprise! 🎉
Keep up the amazing work, you ROCK! ⭐

🎒 New school year, new RGEC registration! / ¡Nuevo año escolar, nueva inscripción en RGEC!

Even if your child attended RGEC last school year or participated in our summer program, families must complete a new registration through EZChildTrack (EZCT) for the new school year. Registrations do not automatically carry over from previous programs or sessions.

Before registering, please make sure any past-due fees on your account have been paid in full, as outstanding balances must be resolved before registration for a new program can be completed.

🔑 Forgot your password? No problem! Contact our team and we can help reset it so you can access your parent portal and complete your registration.

Questions about your account, password, balance, or registration? Reach out to the RGEC Front Desk — we're happy to help! 💚

🎒 ¡Nuevo año escolar, nueva inscripción en RGEC! Aunque su hijo haya asistido a RGEC el año escolar pasado o haya participado en nuestro programa de verano, las familias deben completar una nueva inscripción a través de EZChildTrack (EZCT) para el nuevo año escolar. Las inscripciones no se transfieren automáticamente de programas o sesiones anteriores.

Antes de inscribirse, asegúrese de que cualquier saldo pendiente en su cuenta haya sido pagado por completo, ya que los saldos pendientes deben resolverse antes de completar la inscripción para un nuevo programa.

🔑 ¿Olvidó su contraseña? ¡No hay problema! Comuníquese con nuestro equipo y podemos ayudarle a restablecerla para que pueda ingresar a su portal de padres y completar la inscripción.

¿Tiene preguntas sobre su cuenta, contraseña, saldo o inscripción? Comuníquese con la recepción de RGEC, con gusto le ayudaremos. 💚
