Dear Parents and Guardians:
The 2021-22 school year is off and running! I am happy to report we experienced a successful opening and our students and staff are buzzing with excitement. We are looking forward to getting reacquainted with many parents and students, as well as, meeting our first time parents and students as they embark on their middle school experience. Please consider this letter the first step towards establishing a strong and effective working relationship between home and school. This year at RPMS, we will continue to encourage all children to embrace the values of “tradition, excellence, and pride” in their daily choices and interactions. We are committed to helping every child grow as learners and adolescents. Our dedicated staff will do everything they can to make this year a special time of growth and development academically, as well as, socially and emotionally for every student.
We are very happy to report Middle School Fall sports are in full swing for our 7th and 8th grade students and our clubs are beginning to meet this week for students in all three grades. (I have included a copy of the club schedule from the Bi-Weekly flyer, refer to page 2 of this correspondence.) Please note, there is a tab for the “Bi-Weekly Flyer” located on the RPMS web page. Next week, we will launch our first “Spirit Week” which will culminate with the High School homecoming festivities on Saturday, September 25th. Our Student Government is planning our theme days and I will share them with our middle school community by the end of this week.
I look forward to maintaining open lines of communication with you as a means to provide assistance and leadership in the hopes of creating an experience that is both memorable and successful in terms of social, emotional and academic growth. This kind of experience is only possible with an equal commitment, cooperation and interaction among students, parents and staff. Please be sure to update any and all emergency information on the parent portal as soon as possible, as well as, keeping our Health Office informed. Providing updated parent/guardian e-mail addresses will ensure that you receive the monthly newsletter and other important information.
Teachers will announce when Extra Help will be offered in their Google Classrooms and will take place during “0” period from 7:15 AM - 7:57 AM. Students should be dropped off at the Middle School front entrance for Extra Help. RPMS students may also ride the morning high school bus run if they plan on attending extra help. As a reminder, if your child is driven to school in the morning, student drop off (7:35AM-7:55AM) will take place at the back High School tennis court area.
We know that the 2021-22 school year will be a year of excitement and achievement. Working together as a school and community partnership, we can ensure that all students are successful.
One last reminder, RPMS Open School Night will occur on Thursday, September 23rd at 7PM- it will be a virtual event hosted via Google Meet. I will provide additional information regarding login procedures.
Sincerely,
James Moeller
Principal
