We have spirit yes we do! Here are just a handful of tie-dye and mismatch photos.
Our power is back on. Staff and students did a great job of being flexible.
Parents- currently the middle school has partial power. We are practicing our life skill of flexibility and learning continues. Our phones do work at the time. As we continue to problem solve, we will keep you posted to any updates.
Here are a few spirit week photos. Mismatch and Twin Day! Tomorrow is Workout Wednesday followed by tie-dye and RP spirit.
Our weekly pride slip winners. We have so many students demonstrating the Rocket Way. Great job showing respect, pride, and integrity.
Inquiry in Automation and Robotics starts with exploring axles, wheel placement, and weight. To get the longest traveling object, there was a lot of design thinking, testing, redesigning, and retesting.
Science has proven that your brain can grow and change. It is also proven that that new pathways in your brain only develop by doing hard things-outside of your comfort zone. This is the message that our high school leaders brought to the middle school today when they partnered with 8th grade leaders to facilitate a growth mindset focused learning opportunity for the entire middle school.
Thank you RP community! As a district, we were able to raise $4,163.97 for the Northside Vets. Our pie day event helped add to the today and support a great cause.
Next week is homecoming and we can't wait to see the spirit. Learning goes on as normal, but our clothing and accessory choices may not. Homecoming game at RPHS on 10/4.
Today...meet Addie. Addie is a partner to Sunny in the rotating duty as the RPMS therapy dog. Addie has a lot more energy than Sunny and gets asked often if she curls her hair or gets a perm. Thank you Addie for you help in creating an environment where all students reach their potential.
Today, we would like you to meet Sunny. The job is important and luckily we have two therapy dogs that rotate the duties. The addition of the therapy dogs is part of a larger goal to continue to create a positive and safe school environment and culture so that we can help students realize their full potential. Thank you Sunny for the great service you provide! We will introduce you to Addie soon.
Well...this is a message about our amazing drum line AND growth mindset. We are not great videographers YET. With practice we will improve, but the sound and video are too great not to share. The video will also give you a great chance to stretch your neck as you watch it sideways. Every single day, our band puts in the work, has a growth mindset, and makes learning so visible.

Have you ever wondered how energy is generated? Our seventh grade science students are working as scientists to figure that out.
