The Write Place is open for business! The Write Place’s mission is to promote collaborative student learning by supporting writing across all school curriculums. Tutors will aid the students throughout the writing process and help them reach their writing goals. Tutors offer questions in place of corrections, support instead of criticism, and understanding rather than evaluation.
Junior or Senior students interested in volunteering as a Write Place Tutor should visit Room 315A during their lunch or collaboration period.
Students seeking help with writing can visit the Write Place during any lunch or collaboration period.
Register to join HERE (required to participate in any party or trip)! A board member will reach out and connect you to our PhotoCircle and REMIND communication group. There you will receive announcements, invites to exclusive events, and have the ability to text directly with the staff sponsor, Ms. Erica Slusher.

I cannot say enough good things about the GPS Parent Series. This amazing free resource offers a weekly lineup of highly acclaimed speakers talking about topics for every age and stage of development. Student and Community Projects Coordinator Gilda Ross does a great job bringing in nationally recognized experts for the GPS programs. These speakers recognize the exceptional caliber of GPS and want to be a part of it.
GPS is committed to enhancing the physical, emotional and mental wellbeing of children by providing tips, tools and teaching to parents, guardians, students, school staff, professionals and the community at large. I encourage you to tune into one or more of GPS’ free programs. Most of the programs are webinars, and some events are presented in person.
GPS programs cover a wide range of topics, including:
- Instilling character qualities such as resilience, empathy, compassion and grit
- Technology and screen time
- Substance use/abuse trends
- Issues unique to elementary, middle and high school
- College and career readiness
- Typical and neurodivergent brain development
- Emotional and physical wellbeing
- Early childhood development
This year, GPS has a lineup of more than 50 authors and experts. The webinars are offered at 12PM and 7PM. Some programs also are offered in person and as a hybrid event. GPS also offers programming presented in Spanish, Gujarati and Urdu.
I encourage you to visit GPSParentSeries.org to view the list of upcoming speakers, add GPS events to your calendar and register to receive weekly reminders.
Tell your friends and family about GPS and encourage them to check out a GPS event. GPS programs are convenient and loaded with information to help young people and their families. In partnership with families, we are empowering students and preparing them for their future.
VISION: To utilize school and sports to develop “WELL-ROUNDED” student-athletes and establish great pride in our RAMS COMMUNITY.
