Welcome to the second week of school! We know homework may be picking up, so the U.S. Department of Education has released some tips to help families adjust back to homework and help students with doing that work at home. http://ow.ly/fBFy50FVScQ #pcssdproud #equityandexcellence
RMS:
Any 6th, 7th, or 8th grade student that is interested in running Cross Country (XC) should contact Coach Hunt as soon as possible. His email address is nhunt9266@pcssd.org, and he is located in Room 325 on the third floor.
XC running is an exciting sport in which teams and individuals run a race on courses such as dirt or grass. 7th and 8th grade runners compete in races or "meets" that cover a distance of 1.5 to 2.0 miles. Although Arkansas Athletic Association Rules do not permit 6th grade students to compete at the meets, 6th graders are nevertheless encouraged to practice with the team to gain experience, get healthier, and have fun! The "best" XC runners are hard workers with energy and passion who want to improve every day.
Practices are held before school on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays from 6:30am-7:30am through the end of October. Coach Hunt uses the Remind App for all team communications, and interested students and parents can join any time through the link below:

Again, please contact Coach Hunt as soon as possible if you are interested in joining the RMS XC Team.
Everyone deserves affordable internet at home & opportunities that come with it. We are proud to help close the #DigitalDivide through the @FCC’s Emergency Broadband Benefit in collaboration with @HeartlandFwd. Learn more: https://getemergencybroadband.org/

‘Twas the night before school starts, when all through the building
The classrooms sat empty, waiting for children.
The teachers have been working, for weeks by now
To make sure students would enter with a “wow!”
Meanwhile, children were nestled all snug in their beds,
While visions of a new year danced in their heads.
Teachers were putting finishing touches on plans
To bring an amazing year to their student’s hands.
The morning would bring new adventures no doubt
Another school year is beginning with a lot to be excited about.
Happy first day of school, and to all a goodnight!
Evening Senators! Tomorrow is our first day back. Rest up and see you, soon. RMS News Link: https://www.smore.com/7cg4s
