Rochester Memorial Minute

Our PTO and Volunteers are AMAZING!

Thank you for your thoughtful planning and donations to create an fun-filled Field Day and Fun Run for the entire Rochester Memorial School!

Everyone had an "Fun-tastic Day" because of your efforts and generous donation of your time to support our students. On behalf of all of RMS, we THANK YOU ALL!

RMS sure was buzzing with excitement this past week. We started our day on Tuesday, with an "All School Meeting," discussing being good sports, having a Growth Mind Set, trying something new and encouraging one another. Our PreK-2 students transitioned to their morning events and the 6th graders played basketball against RMS staff, which was SO MUCH FUN! Once again, the staff won the game but only by 4 points! Our 6th graders did an amazing job working together as a team against RMS faculty and staff. Everyone worked so well together as a TEAM. We are so proud of our school community!

We also can't forget the talented band playing tunes during the game to keep us all motivated and energized!! We also had a little bit of half-time entertainment. Thank you to all of the students for their positive energy and school spirit. It was amazing to see the collaboration and everyone cheering for both teams.

Our fifth graders had a great time on their field trip, 6th grade toured the Junior High School and went to Martha's Vineyard on Friday, Kindergarten had an end of the year performance for their families, and preschoolers had a promotion ceremony. This week was full of fun and celebrations for our students. It has been a wonderful week at RMS!

Dear Rochester Memorial Elementary School Families,

We are restarting the Box Tops for Education program and reaching out because we need your help. The Box Tops for Education program has been around for 25 years and has given schools one billion dollars since 1996. As a community, we can help give our students what they need to succeed with just a touch of a button.

It's easy! Here's how it works:

· Buy Box Tops products. With thousands of participating products, there are lots of chances to earn!

· Scan your receipt (paper or electronic) with the Box Tops app within 14 days of purchase and automatically earn for Rochester Memorial Elementary School with every Box Tops product you buy.

· Don’t have access to an app? Or don’t have the time? Send in the receipt with the item clearly circled and the box top stapled or paperclipped to the receipt within 14 days of purchase and we can take care of it for you.

Our goal is to earn $10,000 through Box Tops this year to help with field trips.

Remember, you can earn a bonus for our school by referring your friends, family & other parents at RMS to sign up for Box Tops. You'll both earn a bonus when they scan their first receipt with the Box Tops app.

When first adding the app (Please enter referral code- UJZ56EPY).

Every Box Tops product will count towards our goal. Let's make a difference together.

We can do this!
