Rugby Review
Keeping you up to date on all things Rugby Middle School!
The Final Stretch!
We are looking forward to a very successful end of the school year! As we approach our end of year activities, the following items will prepare every student to be very successful:
1. Attendance - Attendance is the #1 indicator for student academic success. Every day that your student attends school, their likelihood for success skyrockets! Let's finish the year with 100% of our students attending every day!
2. Focus on Goals - Did you know that every Rugby student has set a performance goal for their upcoming end of year assessments? You can support your student by asking them about their growth this year and what they are doing to reach their end of year goal in each class. Our teachers are working hard to help every student meet or exceed their growth goals by the end of the year!
3. Communication - If you or your students have any concerns about academic performance, grades, or the like, please be in regular communication with our staff. We look forward to opportunities to support your student's success!

Attendance
Did you know that your students attendance directly correlates to their academic success? Our instructional day starts at 7:45 each morning and our day ends at 2:50 each after. Every day they attend on time for the full day makes your student statistically more likely to:
- Be promoted to the next grade
- Have stronger grades
- Have success on End of Grade Tests
- Graduate from High School
- Maintain positive attendance habits
