SHADE PROJECT
RMMS is under construction! The Balfour Beatty team is hard at work getting all the work done for our new lunch area shade structures. Work continues on removing earth in preparation for the new concrete footings. They will be working on moving the utilities this weekend, which will require turning off the gas to the campus. We appreciate them working on the weekend to avoid doing this work with scholars on campus.

10 Instagram & Snapchat Safety Tips for Families
Explain the repercussions of oversharing on social media
Andy Wood, TocoMail
To keep your students safe on social media, Snapchat and Instagram included, teach them not to share information with strangers, not to share pictures with anyone outside of the immediate family, and to talk to you if they are harassed in any way. This is extremely important, especially considering the anonymity social media users have and how easy it can be for them to harm your children.
For example, Snapchat's pictures disappear in seconds, but they can be saved in screenshots, or with another device – which means that users who are tempted to share explicit content are in great danger. Talking to them about the potential repercussions is crucial!

VUSD BUS RIDERS
All scholars who ride the VUSD school buses MUST show their bus pass in order to ride the bus. Bus passes were distributed the first weeks of school. Scholars can show their actual pass or a picture on their phone. If you have lost your pass, please ask your parent to call Transportation to get a new one.
NUTRITION
Per our handbook, please leave candy, large bags of chips, sodas, and energy drinks at home. In addition, please bring a refillable water bottle to school to stay hydrated.
CELL PHONES ON CAMPUS
All scholars are reminded to power down their cell phones and to put them in their backpacks each morning during the announcements. If a scholar needs to reach their family, they are able to access the phones in classrooms or in Scholar Services. If a scholar's phone is seen out (for example, in their back pocket), it could be confiscated and held for parent pickup. Thank you for your support in advance.
