Rocky Mountain School

March 4-9 Monday The roads are looking fine for us to have school. The concern will be windchill for the next several mornings. As an extra precaution, have your child wait inside until the bus arrives. Danny and Jack will stop then students can make their way immediately to the bus. We will also limit students’ trips and exposure between buildings as much as possible. PLEASE make sure your student is dressed appropriately for the weather. The buildings will be warm and students will receive two warm meals as usual. 😊 Tuesday 🍀 4-H Soeech and Demonstration @ Maryetta. Only students who took care of completing the registration guidelines that were sent home last week will be allowed to attend. 📸 Spring and Class Pictures. 4-H students will have their picture taken before they leave. Basketball pictures will be rescheduled Wednesday 🍿 Concession/Bake Sale - all proceeds wil go to help Mrs. LaDonna McMurtrey with expenses incurred with the recent death of her husband. LaDonna has worked @ Rocky Mountain many years. If you would like to make an additional donation, please have your student bring it to the office or leave it at concession. Thursday 🏃🏽‍♂️ Track at Tahlequah (weather permitting) Friday 👀 Vision Screening 🍿 Concession Saturday 💵 7/8 Inside Yard Sale, Old Gym, 8:00 AM-1:00 PM (All proceeds go toward the trip to Washington DC) Each student will have their own table and the money they receive will go directly toward their account.

Coach Kimble and his teams did a great job playing Bell today in the Peavine Tournament! Little kids and their excitement just make you smile. 😊. I tried to get a picture of everyone playing, but sometimes I was just too busy smiling! Special thanks to Mrs. Howe and Mrs. Avila for their assistance!
