Greetings from the RMS Counseling office!
This time of year is perfect to reflect on our lives, our struggles, our accomplishments, our goals for the future. A special thank you to all of the parents/guardians for your support. A special thank you to all the students for the uniqueness you each bring to RMS. A special thank you to our teachers and staff who work tirelessly to ensure students feel valued, accepted, and welcomed. The gratitude list could go on. From the bottom of our hearts, have a Happy Thanksgiving!
*6th Grade: This week some of our 6th grade students worked with Mrs. Bjorkstrand to set goals for Trimester 2 and will be meeting with her one on one to review those goals throughout the trimester. After Thanksgiving break, our focus will be on Building Healthy Relationships and Friendships. Advisory classes will meet with Mrs. Bjorkstrand to discuss how to be a good friend and have healthy boundaries. Sixth grade is a year for change and growth, and we want all of our students to have the tools they need to be the best version of themselves.
*7th grade: Mrs. Skover continues to visit classrooms to complete interactive Xello lessons with students! Please ask your child at home about the outcome of the questionnaires they have been completing. It has been awesome seeing students learn about new careers that they were not aware of or interested in before!
*8th grade: Mrs. Bazner has begun Xello activities with 8th graders. As they prepare for a bright future, the students are really enjoying the activity “Transitioning to High School.” Xello activities will continue through the beginning of December.
