Just a reminder that ALL scholars learn virtually on Monday, April 12th - Wednesday, April 14th.

All face-to-face students will return to the building on Thursday, April 15th. Please see the schedule below.

If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact the school.

RMS Parents,

We are excited to announce that this year’s summer school program is not a “re-do”, but instead it is a “reboot!” This year’s program has been revamped and expanded to accommodate the various needs of our scholars. The criteria for summer school is as follows:

• Students who would like to retake a year-long World Language course to clear an incomplete or recover credit with Fulton Virtual
• Students with two or more WF’s, F’s, and/or two or more Incompletes in core content areas (ELA, Math, Science, or Social Studies). Students attending summer school because of incompletes or F’s in Science or Social Studies should register for Reading/ELA.
• Teacher recommendation- students identified through iReady Diagnostic for enrichment (students will receive a special invitation from the school)
• Current 8th graders who will be rising to 9th graders next school year are eligible to take acceleration with Fulton Virtual

Summer school dates are June 17th – June 24th, and the hours for face-to-face instruction are 8:55 AM – 12:55 PM (Monday-Friday). Breakfast and lunch will be provided. Transportation is available, but the assigned stops are limited to the Sweep Bus routes. Because our school building will be under construction this summer, the summer school program for Renaissance Middle School will be held at Camp Creek Middle School in Atlanta, Georgia.

Greetings Wildcat Family,

As you all can imagine, the pandemic has created some challenges with regards to putting together a 2020-2021 RMS Yearbook that is memorable, meaningful, and cost-effective. With the cancellation of many FCS Middle School Athletics and/or Clubs, the number of candid pictures that traditionally would be included in our yearbook has been eliminated. Although this is disheartening to myself, and probably you as well, I still believe that with your help we can create a yearbook that we will make us proud.

Therefore, I am requesting your help to ensure that we have high quality content in our 2020-2021 RMS Yearbook:

1. Please email school-related candid (HD quality) photographs to Mr. Jason Stubbs, RMS Yearbook Coordinator, at stubbsj@fultonschools.org (i.e. scholars working at their work stations at home, exercising in PE class, creating school projects, etc).
2. Provide a brief narrative and/or include a few words that explain the background of the photos and where the photo(s) were taken.

Additionally, please complete the RMS Yearbook Interest survey (http://bit.ly/318oRYm) to assist us with projecting the amount of yearbooks to create, at a cost of $40.00 or less, depending upon the number of yearbooks sold. Finally, I know that in spite of the circumstances, with your support, we can make this year's 2020-2021 RMS Yearbook memorable for our scholars and families. Thank you in advance.

Mr. Jason Stubbs
