The "Mini": Top Reminders & Helpful Links The "Mini": Top Reminders & Helpful Links

Welcome to our Panther Tales "Mini". We will be back next week with a full-sized Panther Tales. If you did not read Last Week's Panther Tales, you can find more detailed information about these reminders by clicking HERE.

1. School Policy Reminder: Picking up students in the park or neighborhood is not permitted.

We’d like to remind everyone that Walker Passes are intended for students who live within walking distance of the school and walk directly to and from school. For safety reasons, students are not allowed to be picked up in the park, parking lot, or around the neighborhood. It has come to our attention that some families may not be following this guideline, which can create safety concerns for our students. We completely understand that the carpool line can sometimes be lengthy, but it is in place to ensure the safety and supervision of all students. If you prefer to avoid the carpool line, bus transportation is also a great option. To help maintain safety, Officer Cole and members of our administration will be regularly monitoring the park and surrounding areas. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation in keeping our students safe.

2. Monday, January 20th: No School

School will be closed in observation of Martin Luther King, Jr. Day.

3. January 23rd: Parent Meeting, RCMS Media Center, 5:30 pm

Join us for an important meeting sponsored by our RCMS PTA. We will share critical information related to Georgia Milestones, assessments, accessing your child's coursework and materials and more. We will also introduce our new school counselor! Do not miss this important opportunity!
