ZONES OF REGULATION
This year, RCMS has implemented Zones of Regulation schoolwide.
The purpose of Zones is to help students recognize and manage their emotions.
During Quarter 1, RCMS staff will focus on:
- discussing the four colors of Zones with students (green, blue, yellow and red)
- providing a space for students to work through their feelings when big emotions come to the surface
Throughout the year, we will discuss strategies for emotional regulation and how to communicate our feelings appropriately in our shared spaces.
Look for more information about this strategy in future Newsletters.
Want to use Zones of Regulation at home? Reach out to Magda Sobalvarro-Ochoa, Victoria Eels, or Karen Naylor for more information.
Below is the chart that staff use to discuss this process with our students.
Este año, RCMS ha implementado Zonas de Regulación en toda la escuela.
El propósito de Zones es ayudar a los estudiantes a reconocer y manejar sus emociones.
Durante el Trimestre 1, el personal de RCMS se centrará en:
1. Discutir los cuatro colores de las zonas con los estudiantes (verde, azul, amarillo y rojo)
2. Proporcionar un espacio para que los estudiantes trabajen a través de sus sentimientos cuando las grandes emociones salen a la superficie.
A lo largo del año, discutiremos estrategias para la regulación emocional y cómo comunicar nuestros sentimientos de manera adecuada en nuestros espacios compartidos.
Busque más información sobre más estrategias en futuros boletines informativos.
¿Quieres usar las zonas de regulación en casa? Comunícate con Magda Sobalvarro-Ochoa, Victoria Eels o Karen Naylor para obtener más información.
A continuación se muestra la tabla que el personal usa para discutir este proceso con nuestros estudiantes.

SAFETY GUIDELINES
This year, students will continue to have the opportunity to go outside for “recess” after they finish their lunch. This year, students are not allowed to bring balls or toys of any type to school. In the interest of student and staff safety, no outside food or deliveries will be allowed. As a reminder, per MCPS guidelines, any adult entering the school building will be asked for their identification.
Ensuring safe drop-off and pick-up is part of our renewed focus on safety and security. As a reminder, traffic in front of the building and in the carpool lane is very busy before and after school. When dropping off your child, please help us by pulling up as far forward as possible, abiding by the lines in the drop off loop. Please plan your travel time so that your child arrives at school with enough time to go to their locker and arrive in class on time. We also ask that the staff parking lot not be utilized for drop-off purposes. For the safety of all children, please be sure to obey all traffic laws when dropping off and picking up, including no U-turns or stopping to drop-off students on Waring Station Road.
Este año, los estudiantes continuarán teniendo la oportunidad de salir al "recreo" después de terminar su almuerzo. Este año, los estudiantes no pueden traer pelotas ni juguetes de ningún tipo a la escuela. En aras de la seguridad de los estudiantes y el personal, no se permitirán entregas de alimentos. Como recordatorio, de acuerdo con las pautas de MCPS, a cualquier adulto que ingrese al edificio escolar se le pedirá su identificación.
Garantizar la seguridad de la entrega y recogida es parte de nuestro renovado enfoque en la seguridad. Como recordatorio, el tráfico frente al edificio y en el carril de viajes compartidos es muy concurrido antes y después de la escuela. Cuando deje a su hijo, ayúdenos deteniéndose lo más adelante posible, respetando las líneas en el bucle de entrega. Planifique su tiempo de viaje para que su hijo llegue a la escuela con tiempo suficiente para ir a su casillero y llegar a clase a tiempo. También pedimos que el estacionamiento del personal no se utilice para dejar a los niños. Para la seguridad de todos los niños, asegúrese de obedecer todas las leyes de tránsito al dejar y recoger, incluido no dar vueltas en U o detenerse para dejar a los estudiantes en Waring Station Road.

GRADE LEVEL AND CLASSROOM NEWS
6TH GRADE NEWS
Welcome to Marking Period 2! We are very proud of how the 6th graders have adjusted and transitioned to Middle School. As we kick off the next marking period, we have a couple of reminders for you to please review with your student.
- In Middle School, we have a lot more students and a lot of academic diversity. Your students are in classes with kids that have all different needs and strengths. As we conclude neurodiversity month, please remind your kids to support and respect all learners in their spaces. It is never acceptable to negatively comment on someone’s learning style being different. We appreciate all of our students!
- Choice Wellness is now assigned on students’ schedules and remains the same for the duration of the marking period.
- Unless there is severe weather, students who chose Outdoor Wellness will go out every day. Please make sure your student is dressed appropriately as there will not be exceptions made for being chilly.
- Attendance during Wellness is mandatory and will be recorded in ParentVUE. Tardies to Wellness count so please remind your student and check on their attendance regularly.
- We are doing a better job navigating the hallways and getting used to so many more people being in school than we had in elementary school. Please continue to remind your children that running is NEVER ok and can be dangerous.
Thank you for all of your support and teamwork!
Noticias de 6º grado:
¡Bienvenidos al Período de Marcado 2! Estamos muy orgullosos de cómo los estudiantes de 6º grado se han adaptado y han hecho la transición a la escuela intermedia. Al comenzar el próximo período de calificación, tenemos un par de recordatorios para que los revise con su estudiante.
- En la escuela intermedia, tenemos muchos más estudiantes y mucha diversidad académica. Sus estudiantes están en clases con niños que tienen todas las necesidades y fortalezas diferentes. Al concluir el mes de la neurodiversidad, recuerde a sus hijos que apoyen y respeten a todos los estudiantes en sus espacios. Nunca es aceptable comentar negativamente que el estilo de aprendizaje de alguien es diferente. ¡Apreciamos a todos nuestros estudiantes!
- Choice Wellness ahora se asigna en los horarios de los estudiantes y permanece igual durante la duración del período de calificación.
- A menos que haya clima severo, los estudiantes que eligieron Outdoor Wellness saldrán todos los días. Por favor, asegúrese de que su estudiante esté vestido apropiadamente, ya que no se harán excepciones por tener frío.
- La asistencia durante el Bienestar es obligatoria y se registrará en ParentVUE. Las tardanzas para el bienestar cuentan, así que recuérdele a su estudiante y verifique su asistencia regularmente.
- Estamos haciendo un mejor trabajo navegando por los pasillos y acostumbrándonos a que haya mucha más gente en la escuela que en la escuela primaria. Continúe recordándoles a sus hijos que correr NUNCA está bien y puede ser peligroso.
¡Gracias por todo su apoyo y trabajo en equipo!
