Yesterday evening, we got together with over 60 families at Black Hill Park to celebrate the start of the school year. Incoming 6th grade magnet students were greeted by our magnet teachers, two Mr. Browns (!), parent reps from our PTSA and PAC groups, returning parents and students, and even some magnet student alumni. Around mouthfuls of pizza, chips, cookies, and even some fruits & veggies, students made new friends and learned more about the magnet experience at RCMS. Parents got to meet and talk to teachers, administrators, and other parents, and kids of all ages found time to play some ball and explore the nearby playground.
This event gets better every year! Thank you to all who attended, and to everyone who signed up with our PTSA and PAC groups. Whether you were able to join us last night or not, be sure to connect to our many amazing parent groups using the info on our school’s website, or the “Parent Groups” page of this newsletter.
We want to extend a special “Thank You” to all our parent and student volunteers for helping making this event run so smoothly. Here’s to a great kickoff and a great school year! We hope to see our incoming families tonight (8/28) at the 6th & 8th Grade Parent Info Night, and our teachers can’t wait to see new students at our “Mini-Day” tomorrow morning (8/29). And, of course, we want to make sure everyone makes it to Back to School Night next Wednesday (9/4). See you soon!
