Dear RMS Parents, Guardians and Caregivers,
We have almost made it through the first nine weeks of school. The end of the nine weeks grading period is Tuesday, November 10th, and report cards go home on Tuesday, November 17th. All grades will be available to parents in the Parent Portal for our virtual and hybrid students. Keep in mind, parents can keep up with the students’ assignments in Google Classroom by being added as a guardian under your child’s account. You may contact your child’s teacher to gain access to Google Classroom.
For additional support, teachers are inviting students to participate in small group remediation or one-on-one tutoring on Wednesdays. Also, don’t hesitate to contact the classroom teacher should you have any questions or want to find methods to help with student performance. Also, during the month of November, teachers will be reaching out to parents to set-up conferences to discuss test scores, academic progress and to explore ways for home and school to work together for the total growth of our students.
Although this year looks a little different for all of our Cobra students and families, I am tremendously impressed with the resilience the students demonstrate each day. Our students have adapted to wearing masks, following new procedures, utilizing their technology problem-solving skills and so much more. We will recognize our students’ hard work with a drive-by celebration. Due to restrictions on large gatherings, we will not have the traditional awards ceremony.
Finally, we have officially kicked off our virtual fall fundraising project. This year, more than ever, we need everyone’s support. Our school uses the funds to help us with providing incentives for our students. Even though we are in a hybrid/virtual learning environment, we want to continue recognizing our students for their hard work; therefore, if you didn’t receive an email from the school regarding the fundraiser, please contact the school to sign up.
Thank you for doing everything you can to stay informed and to support your child through this hybrid/virtual learning platform. Please contact me, if you have any questions or concerns.
Be well and stay healthy!
LaTanya Goodson, Principal
