7th Grade Science!
Mrs. Landivar and Mrs. Baisley's 2nd period class is learning about density by "layering liquids". By observing 3 different liquids (molasses, oil, colored water), we hypothesized the order in which the liquids would settle. Working together, we poured the liquids into a graduated cylinder. Our hypothesis was correct! Molasses is the most dense, so it lays on the bottom; oil, the least dense, is on top.
RMS PTO Corner
The Gertrude Hawk Orders arrive on 12/9. Gertrude Hawk orders will arrive on Monday 12/9. Orders can be picked up on 12/9 from dismissal until 6pm. Additional pick up times can be arranged by emailing romboutpto@gmail.com. Please know that all online orders that chose to be shipped to the school are boxed individually. All orders submitted on a paper order form are boxed together. It is possible your student will have multiple boxes making walking home or riding the bus difficult.
As a reminder, if your student is going on the DC or Boston trips, the PTO will send the tour company 50% of their order total to be applied to the trip balance. We ask for your patience as it will take some time for the payment to be reflected in your account. If your student is not going on those trips, the 50% raised will be donated to the district to help offset costs of grade level field trips taken in the spring.
Thank you to all the families that donated items and volunteered for the Turkey Bowl and Fall Dance. We really appreciate your generosity, time and energy to help support these great RMS events.
The next PTO meeting is Tuesday 12/10 at 7pm in the RMS Library. Come join us as we hear about RMS happenings from administration and talk about upcoming events. We hope to see you there.
