RMS 1 of 2 messages...... October 26 - 30 Weather alert..... The next several days are supposed to be cold and wet with wind chills much lower than actual temperatures. Find those coats! COVID reminders.......... 😷 The health and safety of students and staff are always a priority. I have, and will continue, to work with health officials guidance to assure everyone is as safe as possible at all times. 😷 If you or someone in your house exhibit symptoms of COVID, staff and/or students should remain home until you know the said person is negative and their is no danger of spreading it. Students may participate in distance learning, complete their assignmentsat home and not be counted absent. 😷 If staff or students come into direct contact with someone who tests positive, you are obligated to stay home and let us know. I will work with the health department to determine if the student or staff member has to quarantine and for how long. Remember, this effects everyone differently. What may be a light case for one, might be life and death for another. 😷 Please make sure your child has a mask each morning. In addition, please make sure they have a spare mask or two in their bag. Wash masks after each wearing. 😷 It takes all of us being honest and working together to keep everyone safe. Thanks to everyone for being so diligent!!

RMS 5-8 parents..... Students worked on missing and unfinished work on Friday. Many of them took their laptop home with them for the weekend because they need to finish assignments before tomorrow. I helped in middle school Friday, so I know and can tell you, they understand how to access and submit their work to their teachers. 😊 Some students have just a couple of things to work on, while others may have a couple hours of homework. They can show you their work submitted in each class. If you have questions, students can message teachers, or you can call or text me and I will be happy to help. 918-797-0318. Laptops (make sure they are charged!), chargers and earbuds should be returned to school tomorrow. If your child has their personal laptop and you don’t mind, please have them bring it back and forth to school until we get our new ones in. This will alleviate students having to wait in order to use a laptop. Thank you!!!!

RMS Parents.... Return to traditional, in person learning tomorrow! Students need to return all computers, tablets, chargers, accessories, textbooks, finished and unfinished homework. Make sure laptops and tablets are charged and ready to use during school tomorrow! Hot spots stay at your house until May. We look forward to seeing everyone in the morning!

RMS Reminder...... Meal pick up today for all virtual AND everyone who committed last week to come pick up meals again today who are distance learning. 10 AM - 12 PM or 5 - 7 PM
