STEM scientists investigated magnetic fields by experimenting with magnets and iron filings. We learned about Thomas Edison and his inventions. We found out that electricity starts in a power plant with generators that use magnetic fields to generate electricity. Students observed and asked questions to guess what our mystery machine was - it was an alternator!
The RMS Tigers Art Club meets on Tuesdays after school. Artists learned about Graffiti and drew their names to add to our Graffiti “I am Grateful” Wall. They will be used on their art portfolios to hold their art work this year.

The RMS Counselors extend heartfelt gratitude to Marvin for their generous donation. Marvin Windows came to the aid of the RMS Clothes Closet last spring which has directly impacted students' lives. Liz Wood & Ali Adams, representatives of Marvin, presented a donation of personal hygiene items. Marvin also made a large monetary donation for RMS Counselors to use at their discretion for the Clothes Closet. Many thanks to Emily Land, Senior Human Relations Manager, for seeing the need and working to ensure Marvin was part of the solution.
Marvin's contribution has been used to restock the RMS Clothes Closet with our most needed items. These items allow students to return to their learning environment quickly and confidently.
Marvin’s website states: “We put people first — not just in how we design, but in how we build for the future. We commit to long-lasting and trusting relationships with our employees, customers, partners, and communities, and are there for them when they need us most.” This commitment is clearly reflected in their actions. Community support plays a vital role in fostering educational success by providing tangible resources and sending a powerful message to young people — that their community believes in them and their potential. Marvin Windows doesn’t just talk about putting people first — they live it.
