The end of the school year for our 8th grade students is a busy and exciting time. While many are beginning to look ahead to high school, we have several events planned over the final month to celebrate our students and ensure their time at The Lake ends on a positive note.
Please click below to access information about end-of-year activities. A copy will also be emailed to all 8th grade families.
Parents: The Rose Tree Media School District is seeking stakeholder input in a continuing effort to ensure the success of all RTMSD students. Please take a moment to fill out this short survey before May 22, 2026:
Spring 2026 - Parent/Guardian Survey: Engagement & School Climate
For Students: During the week of May 11th, we will be administering the second all school survey of the year. The purpose of the survey is to gain information about students' perceptions of their experiences in our school. All of the data gathered will be evaluated holistically and help us to inform future planning.
If you have questions or concerns about your child's participation, please reach out to M. Buterbaugh.
Allergy season is in full swing. If your student has seasonal allergies and takes allergy medication, please make sure they take the medication before coming to school. The health office does not have allergy medication available. If your student forgets their medication, parents/guardians may bring and administer the medication to their student in the health office.
Just a reminder about our district medication policy. Students are not permitted to have any medication with them at school. Only inhalers and Epipens with self-carry doctor's orders are permitted. Tylenol, Ibuprofen, and Tums are available at the health office with parent permission. If your student needs any other medication at school, please see the Administrations of Medication policy for instructions.
Rose Tree Media School District is committed to improving our society today, and for future generations, through outstanding education, awareness, and appreciation of all people. We work to carry out this mission by exhibiting respect for diversity among our student body, including but not limited to race, ethnicity, gender identity, sexual identity, disability, socioeconomic class, and religion. The mission of F.A.R.E. is to promote and encourage diversity awareness, provide family support, engage in networking, and create deeper unity and understanding within the Rose Tree Media School District and the surrounding community.

Please also refer to the school calendar for meeting dates and any rescheduling.
To keep classrooms focused and learning uninterrupted, all wireless devices, including cell phones, smart watches, earbuds, and similar devices, must be OFF and AWAY during the school day unless a teacher gives a specific academic reason to use them. Students will be reminded each morning to power down their devices.
Please let your child know that you will not be texting or calling during school hours. If a student needs to reach a parent, a staff member can provide permission. In an emergency, the main office is the best way to get in touch. More details are available in the Springton Lake Student Handbook.
Thank you for helping us create a safe, distraction-free learning environment!
