Greetings-

I wanted to take some time in this newsletter to thank the parents and guardians for all of their support and efforts when working with RMS staff and students. Without your collaboration, we could not see the growth in our students.

With a heavy heart, I wanted to let you all know that I will not be returning to Rochester Middle School after the 2024-2025 school year as I am pursuing another opportunity outside of the school district. I have appreciated my time here in the Rochester School District with one year at William Allen and the last three at RMS. The students, staff, and families in the district have been enjoyable to work alongside, and I am thankful for the experiences and opportunities to act as a leader in the great city of Rochester.

There is an amazing team here at RMS. We have worked diligently on our NELMS goals of Instruction, Safety, and Culture and Climate. They will continue to support and guide students as they find a pathway of their choice moving on to Spaulding High School.

Thank you again for your hard work and collaboration, and I wish you all the best of luck.

Respectfully,

Ryan Gilpatrick

Dear Parents and Guardians,

We are offering Saturday School on Saturday, April 5th from 8-11 am. This opportunity is for students to catch up on work. It is not an opportunity to get more work assigned. School starts at 8 am at Rochester Middle School. Late arrivals will not be allowed in. Please fill out the student's name, grade, team, and dates your student will attend. Also, please sign acknowledging that you would like your son or daughter to attend. It would be great to leave the best contact number for those dates. Staff does an excellent job planning for these sessions, so it is important that we have accurate numbers and information. Thank you!

Respectfully,

Ryan Gilpatrick

Principal
