Listen to the angelic voices of our advanced choir in a magical winter choral concert at RMS.

Please join the RMS Drama Department on Tuesday, December 20th at 7:00pm to enjoy our first annual Night of Scenes! Our drama class has prepared five scenes of varying genres that showcase the acting and technical skills learned this semester. Prepare to be taken on a journey filled with laughter, love, laziness, group-project-inspired rage, and some good old-fashioned evil scheming.

The coffee with the principal was very informative last Tuesday. Our campus supervisors were present during the meeting. We discussed our student safety, the best way to promote events on social media, and more topics. We invite you to join us for the next Principal's Coffee in February; take advantage of this space to meet our principal and ask any questions you may have.

Last Monday, 12/5, many of our WIldcats visited One Sight installations in Olive Ave. for a free vision screening and to obtain their new glasses. One sight is a great program that has supported our students within VUSD for several years. Since 1988, OneSight has helped millions of people access vision care and the glasses they need to see clearly. And LensCrafters has been there every step of the way.

1 in 4 students in the United States has an undiagnosed vision problem. Studies have shown that glasses help with reading comprehension, and boost learning by up to twice as much. They can also help kids stay in school, reducing dropout rates by 44% when students get the glasses they need. Since 1988, LensCrafters and OneSight have worked together to help students get the eye exams and glasses they need to succeed in school and beyond.

Students in our Academy Language and Literacy classes will have a trip to Finance Park in SD. This is the first time that RMS students will have this opportunity. Ms. Nancy Licona, our school counselor, presented information about that trip to ALL students. Thank you, Ms. Licona, for helping and supporting our Wildcats!

Students and Staff enjoyed this spirit week. Every day was a new challenge, and they nailed it!
