Principal's Message
Student success is the goal of every staff member at RMMS. We believe with our new structure and dedication to high-quality, research-based best practices, every student will learn to their full potential. We are prepared to offer time and support through the RTI Model; a three-tiered approach to instruction /intervention:
- Tier 1- Classroom teachers will use a variety of strategies within their classroom to address individual instructional needs. (Regular Classroom)
- Tier 2: Based on assessment data, students who are unsuccessful in Tier 1 will be provided additional research-based interventions. Content Teams will monitor student progress and monitor interventions as needed. (Tier 2 Instruction is provided during Stretch Time, which is Wednesday and Thursday, 10:00-10:31. Students are either assigned to - or can choose to - attend various classes based on need or interest, with the goal being 100% of our students mastering the Essential Skills identified by their teachers to ensure further success).
- Tier 3: Students who continue to struggle in Tier 2 will receive more intensive interventions, such as additional support classes and/or teacher mentors.
- Additional Support: Monday Consultation Time, 1:20-2:20, is a time set aside for any student to get additional help, as well as time for parents to meet with teachers. No appointment necessary.
My family has lived by a motto that I believe is very relevant in school and in life: Harvard Education, Army Discipline, and Disneyland Fun. I ask for your support and participation in this effort by sending your child to school every day on time, encouraging him/her to always do their best, monitoring weekly homework and progress through SIS and Canvas, and asking your child to share what they learned at school each day. To support our motto, we have teamed up with Slim and Knobby’s to give away a Specialized Mountain Bike as well as many other wonderful prizes throughout the year to support our Cool2Care and 212 programs.
In closing, I’d like to invite you to continue to visit our school’s website and Facebook page. This will serve as a resource tool for all upcoming events, student/parent handbook and important reminders. This school year, we will encourage our entire RMMS community to demonstrate our Grizzly pride by wearing our school colors (Black and Gold) on Fridays.
Sincerely,

We wanted to inform you that one of our 7th grade students, Yaretzy Holguin Hernandez, was diagnosed with Ewing Sarcoma, a type of cancer found in the bone, just days before the school year started. Yaretzy is currently undergoing chemotherapy and may need surgery to remove a tumor in her collarbone. These treatments are very expensive, so Latinos in Action is putting on a few fundraisers to help the family with these expenses. They are selling “Hope for Yaretzy” bracelets for $3 to raise money, as well as, they have set up a donation link on the MYSCHOOLFEES website similar to Go Fund Me. The bracelets are yellow, which is the color that specifically represents Sarcoma. The link below will take you to the payment website where you can donate or buy bracelets if you’d like to help.
HOW TO GET YOUR BRACELET!

with her cancer treatments. If you’re interested in helping in any other way, please feel free to
