Congratulations RSMS for reaching our 10,000 box tops goal with an awesome total of 10,005! That’s over $1,000 for our school. Way to Go! Keep Clipping!
Parent Teacher Conference Dinners-Spring 2019
Volunteers are needed to help with dinners for RSMS staff during the upcoming parent-teacher conference sessions.
Whether you can volunteer your time to help set up, clean up afterward, or contribute desserts or drinks (PSO purchases the entrees - thanks to all who contribute throughout the year!). Both days are available on the sign-up page; be sure to scroll down to see all of the donation or volunteer options available!
The Giving Tree Will be Back for Spring Student-Led Conferences

Visit the Giving Tree during conferences and pick up your leaf to give back to the Rockwood community.
Lunchroom Volunteers Needed!
It may still be cold, but hopefully it will warm up soon!
Volunteers are needed in March through May 17 to help supervise lunch so the kids can go outside (weather permitting; at least 55 degrees & sunny).
We’d love any help whether it’s one lunch period or covering all grade levels. Regular day lunch bell times are:
11:02 - 11:27 (7th grade)
11:50 - 12:15 (6th grade)
12:38 - 1:03 (8th grade)
On Wednesday Falcon Days, bell times shift later. On early release days bell times shift earlier. Please show up early to be prepared to start when the bell rings.

School Store Volunteers Needed
Hey parents! We desperately need help in the school store! We are low on volunteers and it’s a super fun, quick and easy way to help out! It’s open every day after school from about 2:15 pm to 3:00 pm. The school store sells snacks and supplies and a lot of the kids who stay after for clubs depend on it being open to grab a quick snack.
Even if you can work 1-2 shifts per month, please contact Mary Gulath at mary.gulath@gmail.com. Thank you!
