📸 One Last Memory in a Special Place🚀
Before the construction crews roll in and the summer teardown begins, our amazing RCMS Staffulty gathered for one final, historic group photo in the cafeteria!
This room has been so much more than just a place to eat. It’s where we’ve shared countless laughs, celebrated milestones, navigated busy mornings, and watched generations of students grow up. While it’s incredibly bittersweet to see this chapter close, we are absolutely thrilled to take this giant leap forward.
This summer, the old cafeteria comes down to make way for a brand-new era and a stunning new RCMS building! 🏗️✨
The walls may change, but the incredible spirit of our staffulty and school community remains exactly the same. We are ready for the future! 🚀

Please look at the flyer attached regarding information on our 8th grade promotion🚀

🎶✨ March is Music in Our Schools Month! ✨🎶
All year long, our students have been making music, building skills, and creating unforgettable moments—and March gives us the perfect chance to celebrate it all! 💙
From concerts and performances to rehearsals and everyday classroom magic, our band, general music classes, choir, and musical theatre groups have been hard at work sharing their talents and passion. 🎤🎸🥁🎭
Music education helps our students grow in confidence, creativity, and teamwork—and we are so proud of the dedication they show throughout the entire year!
We’re also so grateful for the continued support of our families and community—your encouragement, attendance, and generosity help keep these programs strong and thriving for our students. 🎶
