Good evening Leopards! We are looking forward to a wonderful week at RSMS. Below are announcements for the week of March 2. Collectively, we did a much better job with decreasing tardies last week.

Any other late checkins will follow a progressive disciplinary action. Students should be in class at 7:55 am. Students also did a great job following the dress code. Let’s keep up meeting our school expectations. Mark your calendar for April 18. We will have a School Clean Up Day and invite you to come out to support our RSMS Leopards!

Good morning RSMS family! Due to the weather our Season Opener games for today have been postponed. We will let you know when they have been rescheduled. We will still have Homework Club and After School Detention. Thank you!!

Today, RSMS partnered with the Sampson County Sheriff's Office K9 Unit to conduct a scheduled safety check at our school. These random checks are part of our ongoing efforts to maintain a safe and secure learning environment by identifying any items that may pose a risk to student safety.

During this time, the school was placed under a Code Yellow, which limited hallway movement as a precautionary measure. Please note that normal classroom instruction continued without interruption.

The safety of our students remains our top priority. We appreciate the continued support of our dedicated staff and our partners in law enforcement as we work together to ensure a safe school environment for all.

Good evening Leopards! We made it through all five days last week and are looking forward to another exceptional week at RSMS! Below are announcements for the week of February 23.

Starting tomorrow, after three late check-ins your student will be assigned after school detention. Any other late checkins will follow a progressive disciplinary action. Students should be in class at 7:55 am. Please review the attached SCS dress code. Students will be expected to follow the dress code. Please review with your child and ensure they are dressed for success each day! Thank you to everyone who showed up to support our Athletic Department Thursday night at Burrito Shak! Your support is appreciated. Our Spring sports season kicks off Thursday at 4:00 pm. Come out to support our Leopards! Thank you for your support and helping us make RSMS the best it can possibly be!

Good evening RSMS parents, students, and stakeholders!

We have an exciting goal for this week… and it’s a big one! 😄

Our plan is to come to school for five full days. That’s right — Monday through Friday, all in one week! It’s been a little while since we’ve been able to say that, so we are setting our sights high and aiming for a perfect attendance streak.

We also have a few events happening so please take note.

Monday Night:
Lakewood District parents are invited to attend the Community Strategic Planning Meeting at Union High School beginning at 6:00 PM. Your voice matters! We appreciate any feedback you can provide to help guide the future direction and strategic plan of Sampson County Schools. This is your opportunity to help shape what’s next for our students and our community.

Thursday Night = Dinner with a Side of School Spirit!
Join us at Burrito Shak in Clinton from 4:00–9:00 PM to support our RSMS athletic program. Come enjoy dinner while our very own Athletic Director, Coach Masters, serves you! We can’t guarantee he’ll draw up a game plan for your burrito order, but we can guarantee it will be a fun night for a great cause. 😉

Mark your calendar for Spring sports pictures on Monday, March 2.

We’re looking forward to a full week of learning, growing, and making the most of our instructional time together. Thank you for helping us start each day on time, ready to learn, and prepared to make it a great week at RSMS.

The mandatory Spring Sports Meeting for parents will be Wednesday, February 18 at 5:30 pm in the cafeteria. Please use the front door to enter the building. Lastly, we need your help.

Good evening parents. This is Ms. Hines calling from RSMS with your weekly announcements.
First, I want to thank all of our students for their attention and focus during our RSMS Mindset Reset on Thursday and Friday last week. Their behavior far exceeded the reputation of RSMS and their ability to receive the information and be a part of the positive change at RSMS was truly remarkable. We only have good days ahead with our Leopards!

We will continue with our alternate route for car riders this week while construction is still on going in front of the school. We appreciate everyone for your patience during this time.

Please remember that students who are not in the gate at 7:55 am are tardy and will need a parent to sign them in at the office.

Please have students bring in cardboard, cereal boxes, and any newspaper you have at home you don’t want or need for our Art Department.

All Band Students should bring their instruments each day! Even on days they do not have band, as this will get them into the habit of having their instrument for class. They will be able to store their instruments in the instrument storage starting next Wednesday, January 14th. Students are responsible for all instrument accessories such as reeds and valve oil.

Students identified as Multilingual Learners (MLs) will be taking the State Mandated Language Proficiency test (WIDA ACCESS) starting tomorrow. This test assesses four language domains: Listening, Reading, Writing, and Speaking. In order to exit the ESL program the MLs must score a 4.5 or higher overall composite. Please, encourage your ML to do his/her best on this test.

There is an AIG Field Trip to MMS on Jan 27. Please sign and return the permission slip by Friday January 16th for your student to participate!
