To help ensure a safe and smooth dismissal for all students, we kindly ask that families do not drive around the car in front of them during parent pick-up unless directed by a staff member. Some students require additional time and assistance getting into their vehicles, and moving out of line can create unsafe conditions. The safety of our students is our top priority, and we appreciate your patience and cooperation in following these procedures.

Ms. Worden's class and Mrs. Lehane’s class had an awesome day at Stardust Gym in East Bridgewater. The students participated in challenging obstacle courses, played team building games, and tried out some of the fun gym equipment. The students had a wonderful day together!

In celebration of Arbor Day, Grade 1 students received tree saplings today! These trees were provided as part of a wonderful program where proceeds from their purchase support a scholarship fund for students pursuing a future in arboriculture. A huge thank you to John Ames, Grounds Specialist for the Town of Easton, for organizing this meaningful event. "Planting a tree today is a gift to the generations of tomorrow."

At RLM, our PRIDE program is designed to help students grow not only as learners, but also as caring, responsible community members. Each month, teachers and students focus on one of our PRIDE traits:

September – Passion
October – Respect
November – Ingenuity
December – Determination
January – Empathy
February – Positivity
March – Responsibility
April – Inclusivity
May – Dreamer

Throughout the month, students learn about the featured trait in their classrooms and in schoolwide activities. On Mondays and Fridays, student volunteers share examples and their own interpretations of the trait during morning announcements. At the end of each month, we celebrate students who have done an exceptional job demonstrating the trait in their daily actions. These students will also receive a token to "purchase" a book from our school book vending machine.

Our PRIDE program helps us build a school culture where character, leadership, and positive choices are valued and celebrated.

School Lunch Hero's Day - May 1st is National School Lunch Hero Day, celebrated the first Friday in May.
