The Last Monday Message...
This will be the last Monday Message until we pick back up in August to get ready for the 2024-2025 school year.
I want to thank our faculty, staff, PTO, and other members of our school community for sending information, class lessons, and updates to include! Also, a big shout out to our students for going above and beyond in their efforts in and out of the classroom so that we can show our school community what a wonderful job you do. We are proud of you!
I appreciate all of your support with the Monday Message. I hope that you enjoy it. Have a great Summer!
Sincerely,
Mr. Carofano
Fun in Italian and Spanish Classes!
Students of Italian and Spanish in Ms. Hughes' classes made self-portraits with descriptive words in the language they are learning! Each of the students celebrate their unique and diverse characteristics!
RMS Welcomes our Four-Legged Friends
RMS welcomed four Certified Therapy Dogs from Hudson Valley Paws for a Cause in the Library! Students and Staff were able to spend some time during their lunch period to relieve some stress leading up to finals and the end of the year. We enjoyed hosting Seamus, Finnegan, Graecyn, and Hydrus and hope to have them back next school year!

A Message from our Librarian Ms. D'Ottavio
BCSD School Calendar for the 2024-2025 School Year
For your planning needs, below is the district calendar for the 2024-2025 school year!
Thank You, Ms. DiNobile!
We wanted to give a special shout-out to Ms. Dottie DiNobile, who is stepping down as the RMS PTO President at the end of this school year. Dottie has been involved with RMS PTO for at least the last 8 years and we are certainly going to miss her! She has attended and organized the PTO's involvement at all of our events and sometimes her leadership goes without proper "thanks."
We cannot thank you enough, Dottie, for all that you have done to support our students and staff and for your constant collaboration with our school to help make RMS a wonderful school community!
Sincerely,
The Faculty and Staff at Rombout Middle School
