A reminder that our annual Veterans Day Celebration Assembly is next week! The event is open to any local veterans interested in joining us. We know family members would like to come see their students perform in the band or chorus, and there will be many more opportunities for that later in the year. This event is for veterans and their caregivers only. We hope to see you there!

Dear RMS Families,

This morning, we held grade-level assemblies to review our schoolwide expectations and talk about the importance of creating a positive school community. The RMS community is working hard to foster an environment where all students feel welcomed, supported, and included while demonstrating kindness, safety, responsibility, and respect toward one another.

Throughout the month of November, we will be rolling out a special Kindness Initiative to encourage students to make kindness part of their everyday actions. We want our students to understand that even the smallest acts of kindness can make a big difference. Whether it is including someone, offering a helping hand, using encouraging words, or simply being a good friend, each action helps make RMS a place where everyone belongs.

We are excited to see our Timberwolves embrace this initiative and work together to spread kindness throughout our school!

Thank you for your continued support in helping us build a strong, positive RMS community.

Good Afternoon, RMS Families! 🐺

This is a friendly reminder that RMS Conferences will take place on Tuesday, November 3rd!

Our teams have sent out sign-up information, and we encourage all families to sign up for a time to connect with their student’s advisory teacher.

This year, we are trying something a little different! These conferences are an opportunity to review student goal-setting sheets, celebrate progress, and discuss how your child has been doing since the start of the school year. Our goal is to strengthen the partnership between home and school so we can continue supporting every Timberwolf’s success.

We look forward to connecting with you! If you have any questions or need additional information, please reach out to us.

Thank you for being part of our RMS community. Together, we are unstoppable! 🐺

Dear RMS Families,

On Tuesday, November 3rd, Rochester Middle School will be holding our Student/Parent Snapshot Conferences!

This year, we are excited to create an opportunity to connect with our families, celebrate student progress, and strengthen the relationships that help our Timberwolves thrive. These conferences will look a little different from what you may be used to!

Families will have the opportunity to sign up for a meeting with their student’s advisory teacher to review goal-setting sheets, discuss progress, and get a snapshot of how things have been going since the start of the school year. Our goal is to work together to celebrate successes, identify areas for growth, and support each student as they continue working toward their goals.

More information, including sign-up details, will be shared with families soon.

We hope to see you there! Thank you for being an important part of our RMS community. Together, we are unstoppable! 🐺
