Do you have a student with great ideas to promote school spirit? Is your student interested in helping in our community? If so, please have him/her pickup a Student Government Association (SGA) Information Sheet in the cafeteria during lunch. All applications will be due Friday, August 30, 2024. Please contact Dr. Long (longm6@fultonschools.org) or Mrs. Ceniceros (Mrs. C) (cenicerosi2@fultonschools.org) with any questions.

We had a record number of talented students try out for our Fall Sports Teams! Because of the incredible interest and support available through the RCMS Foundation, we are able to add three additional sports teams this year: A third girls volleyball team (C team), a second boys soccer team (B team) and a second baseball team (B team).

Who's Got Spirit?! Students are welcome to stay after school to cheer on their fellow Panthers! Concessions are available for purchase (cash only) at all indoor home games (volleyball & basketball). You do not need to send a change of transportation if your student is staying to watch a game but you do need to arrange for their transportation home.

Thanks to your PTA support, our Spring Semester '24 Honor Roll and Principal's Honor Roll recipients celebrated with delicious ice cream treats!

Our music students are headed to Universal Studios Orlando! If you are interested in sending your 7th or 8th Grade music student (Band, Chorus or Orchestra) on this trip, please attend one of the Parent Interest Meetings.

This meeting is for ALL parents. Did you know that, because we are a Title 1 school, we receive extra funding and support? Learn about how we use those resources and our goals for the school year at our Title 1 Night.

Thank you to these local businesses who have chosen to support our Panthers. Please consider supporting them in return! Interested in becoming one of our Corporate Partners? Please check out our 2024-25 Sponsorship Packet!
