Quarter 2 Gale Awards are this Thursday, January 16th. We look forward to seeing you and celebrating our amazing students. #GoGales!
Due to the forecasted winter weather we have several schedule changes for this week! 🌪️❄️
Mrs. Gallegos’ class read a book by local author, Eli Cranor! Friends in our community purchased each student in her class a copy of the book, and Eli came to speak with them! They asked so many great questions and learned about what it’s like to be an author. Then one of our very own 6th grade students, Ella Mae Tindell, had the opportunity to meet with Eli and share a novel that she has recently written! This was such a neat opportunity for all of these students!
6th grade science students in Mr. Dailys class explored why ice crystals and water droplets, that condensate on cloud condensation nuclei, don’t fall all the time. Students blew through a straw to try to keep the tissue paper (that represented ice crystals or water droplets in the atmosphere) floating in the air. The force applied by blowing through the straw represented updrafts.
Students are investigating how ice can be falling from the sky on a warm day, how clouds form, why some clouds produce storms with large amounts of precipitation and others don’t, and how all that water gets into the air in the first place.
Mr. Drew Brent from RHS spoke to our career awareness students this week. They even had the opportunity to get in front of the camera to practice their interview skills. They had a wonderful time learning about careers in the field of A/V Technology & Media Communications!
Congratulations to our RMS spelling bee winners, Ella Eagle (1st place),
Vivaan Kaliraman (2nd place),
Alanah Staswick (3rd place). We are so proud of you!

Lucian Cotton, Ryker Brown, and Dakota Driscoll worked to complete a word sort of nouns and verbs in Mr. Ball's sixth period ELA class. We love to see students utilizing hands-on learning!
When you spend all week in Mrs. G's class focusing on Author's Purpose, it only makes sense to start your Friday off with PIE! Persuade, Inform, Entertain! The class enjoyed a mini pie of their choice then wrote about their pie using sensory details! #GoGales!
