5th GRADE ORIENTATION
Hey, incoming 5th grade students and parents! We wanted to let you know that we have scheduled 5th grade orientation for BOTH students and parents. :)
When: August 19th
Where: RSMS, New Gym
Time: 5:30-6:30
You will hear a litle bit from Mr. Town, the awesome 5th grade team of teachers, and have a building tour. We hope to see you on August 19th!
Hey Parents! This year RSMS has an awesome opportunity to offer many of our students...summer school! We have not had this opportunity in the past, but due to the amount of school we have missed we felt it necessary to try and address the learning that was missed over the 4th quarter.
At this point we are opening up summer school on a first come/first serve basis. We have approximately 25 openings at each grade level. Summer school runs August 3-14 from 8:00-12:00 each day. Students will spend half the time focusing on reading and half the time focusing on math.
Transportation is provided from Story City to Roland and the shuttle bus will leave the elementary at 7:45 each morning to bring students to RSMS and deliver them back to Story City by 12:15. If you live in Roland you will need to provide your own transportation to RSMS.
There is a $50.00 charge for summer school. Please email Mr. Town or call the office to confirm attendance and wait to pay until the first day of class. If schools haven’t opened up by then due to COVID-19, we will have to cancel summer school.
Thanks and we look forward to the summer school opportunity for our students!
Mr. Town

PARENT PICK-UP AND DROP-OFF LOCATION AT RSMS
To improve the safety for our students, RSMS has a dedicated location for parent pick-up and drop-off on the NORTH side of our building. Parents have the entire stretch of Elm Street (now a ONE WAY STREET) to drop off their child with sidewalk access into our building. We ask that students use the sidewalks available instead of walking through the grass or mud. Please click on the link below to see a map of the new location. Any questions, please call Mr. Town at 388-4348.
Yearly Physicals and Changes to Vaccine Requirements
A yearly physical is an important part of your child's health & well-being. Physicals are valid for 13 months and cover the sports physical requirements, as well as ensures you are informed of all vaccine requirements and recommendations. This is an excellent time to call your McFarland provider for a check up.
