Publications

Rainbow School takes pride in keeping its parents, students and community informed.  The primary official publication sent home is the Rainbow Communicator.  The Communicator is published weekly and is sent home with students on Friday.  The intent is to keep students, parents, and members of the community aware of Rainbow activities, school policies, and special events.

Parent Teacher Student Association (PTSA)

Rainbow has an active PTSA!  Information is sent home regularly concerning PTSA meetings and activities.  We welcome your active participation!  For more information, please contact the school.

School Advisory Committee (SAC)

The School Advisory Committee provides an official forum for you to express your ideas and concerns with school and community officials.  It is comprised of two elected parent representatives from the community and two elected teacher representatives.  The school principal and School Liaison Officer (SLO), the commander's official representative, are non-voting members of SAC. 

If you would like to communicate with the School Advisory Committee, address your communication to School Advisory Committee, Rainbow Elementary School, CMR 454, APO AE 09177.

Volunteers

Volunteers are very important people at Rainbow.  They share their time as teachers' aides, playground monitors, aides in the science lab or computer labs, or in the Information Center.  If you are interested in becoming a volunteer, please contact the school and we will put you in touch with our Red Cross Representative (this is a necessary step before you begin your volunteer activities).  Should you choose to contact the Red Cross office directly, call DSN 467-2135/2136 or the Installation Volunteer Coordinator at DSN 468-7705.

To call DSN numbers from civilian telephones in Germany or the US, please see the calling instructions on the Contact Information page of this website.
