We hope you remembered Earth Day this last weekend.
Today is our last Earth Day announcement….
Today’s Earth Day Tip: Easy Ways to REUSE things!!

1. Donate items you no longer want or need. For example, donate those jeans you have outgrown! This will keep them out of the landfill and someone else will enjoy them!
2. Be Creative! Turn an old item into something new! For example, turn an old t-shirt into a reusable and washable sling bag with a few easy cuts from a sharp pair of scissors!
There are countless ways to be creative and use “old stuff” and give it NEW life!!
Make Earth Day habits every day habits to be a good steward of our planet!

There is an NJHS meeting today after school from 3-4 PM in room 029, see you all there!

Congratulations to Leah Zimberoff for breaking the Track & Field 8th Grade Girls 200 meter dash school record with a time of 26.05 seconds. The record was previously held by Tori Ortiz when she ran the 200 with a time of 26.18 seconds in 2014. Great job, Leah!!

Autism Spectrum Disorder is a developmental disability caused by differences in the brain. Autism is usually associated with difficulty in social and communications skills, repetitive behaviors and following routines. It can also have some sensory sensitives and challenges with paying attention. The impact Autism Spectrum Disorder has on one person can present very differently in another person. You may know someone diagnosed with Autism and not even know it!
Be sure to stop by the Appreciation Station today to fill out a thank you note for any RMS staff member. Boxes are stationed in the main office and student services. Be sure all cards are clearly labeled with the staff it’s intended for.
Kindness can become its own motive. We are made kind by being kind.

Attention 1st hour teachers, please submit how many students in your 1st hour class are wearing blue & yellow today in honor of Down Syndrome Awareness day.

Down Syndrome occurs when someone is born with an extra chromosome. A chromosome is a thread-like structure that carries your genes, which help to decide your traits, like the color of your eyes and how tall you grow. This extra chromosome can have a wide variety of effects on people. It can lead to some challenges with their health, physical growth, and learning. For every person with down syndrome it is a different experience. Did you know that Down Syndrome remains the most common chromosomal Condition diagnosed in the US. Each year, about 6,00 babies born in the US have Down Syndrome. This means that 1 in every 700 babies has Down Syndrome.
