RMS band and choir students visited the elementary buildings to provide them with some holiday cheer this week! Students performed multiple holiday pieces for the younger classes to enjoy. We hope our younger groups will feel encouraged and motivated to continue to explore their opportunities in our band and choir program at RMS in the future. Happy Holidays!
Parents, we just want to offer a little token of gratitude for allowing us the opportunity to get to know and educate your child. We know middle school is a unique age and everyday is a new day! Here is a chance for us to thank you.
What is it?
If you are dropping your child off the morning of 12/22 we will be offering you a cup of hot chocolate and a candy cane if you would like.
We just want to help start your day right and say thank you for bringing your child to us.
The hot cocoa will be on the East side (staff lot) of the building toward the back.
We will have some signs and cones out and we will work as fast as we can, we just ask for your patience.
Padres, sólo queremos ofrecerles una pequeña muestra de gratitud por permitirnos la oportunidad de conocer y educar a su hijo. ¡Sabemos que la escuela secundaria es una edad única y cada día es un nuevo día! Aquí tenemos la oportunidad de agradecerle.
¿Qué es?
Si va a dejar a su hijo la mañana del 22/12, le ofreceremos una taza de chocolate caliente y un bastón de caramelo si lo desea. Solo queremos ayudarlo a comenzar bien el día y agradecerle por traernos a su hijo. El chocolate caliente estará en el lado este (lote del personal) del edificio hacia la parte trasera. Tendremos algunas señales y conos y trabajaremos lo más rápido que podamos, solo les pedimos paciencia ya que es nuestro primer intento.
