TALON TALK
Hello Reynolds Families,
We're approaching the end of the year, and we have so many amazing and fun activities planned to recognize our students' accomplishments and celebrate another successful year at Reynolds Middle School! These events honor the hard work, growth, and achievements of our Eagles throughout the year. We hope you'll mark your calendars for these special celebrations!
Celebrating Our 2nd Semester Star Polishers
Before we share our upcoming events, we want to celebrate our 2nd Semester Star Polisher award winners! These staff members go above and beyond for our students and their fellow staff members every single day. Congratulations to Jordan Clingan, Heather Eck, Lindsey Cote, Heather Chrissan, Kelly Hodgson-Taulbee, and Rianna Babb for this well-deserved recognition. We're grateful for their dedication to making Reynolds such a special place!
Welcome to the Ship Pep Rally - May 1st
On May 1st, Prosper High School has invited our 8th graders to campus for their inaugural "Welcome to the Ship" pep rally. This exciting event will give our outgoing 8th graders a taste of what's to come as they transition to high school. It's a wonderful opportunity for them to connect with the PHS community and get excited about the next chapter!
We're looking forward to celebrating with your students at these wonderful events. More specific details and information will be shared as each event approaches!

Prosper ISD Technology Updates
Middle schoolers, it’s time for a tech refresh! As part of Prosper ISD’s summer updates, all 6th, 7th, and 8th graders need to turn in their Chromebooks and chargers before the school year wraps up. Don’t worry, rising freshmen—you’ll be geared up with a brand-new device once you hit high school, while incoming K-8 students will have units waiting for them on campus. Just remember to bring that charger back along with the laptop to ensure a smooth checkout!

Fidgets and Distracting Items
Quick reminder for Reynolds families — large squishy fidgets and distracting toys belong at home, not in the classroom! Unless an item is part of a student's IEP, these can disrupt learning and risk getting lost or damaged at school. We appreciate your help keeping our classrooms focused and fun — reach out anytime with questions!
Electronic Devices Restricted
Phones down, learning on! Reynolds Middle School is an Electronics Free Zone — and per Texas House Bill 1481, that means no phones, earbuds, headphones, or smartwatches during the school day. Please remind your student before they head out the door. We appreciate your help keeping Reynolds focused!
