Welcome Dr. Skomer!
As mentioned in last week’s Messenger, Tara started her maternity leave and we have Dr. Kevin Skomer serving as principal for the remainder of this school year. Many of you know him from his time as Principal of Louise White Elementary School. You can email him at kevin.skomer@bps101.net. We are very happy to welcome him to Rotolo!
Bike and Roll to School
RMS is proud to participate in Bike & Roll to School on Wednesday, May 7th! (weather permitting – rain date May 8)

My School Bucks
For the rest of the 2024-2025 school year, RMS will begin using the district’s new payment platform, MySchoolBucks. To prepare for this change, all RMS families must follow the steps below to set up a MySchoolBucks account. During this transition period, some invoices for field trips, extracurricular activities, and end-of-the-year events may be sent through the new system. Balances owed in PowerSchool for past charges must still be paid in PowerSchool.
Get started in 4 easy steps:
- Download the mobile app or visit myschoolbucks.com
- Create your free account
- Add your student
- Browse the Rotolo Middle School online store
If you have any questions about getting started with MySchoolBucks, call (855) 832-5226. For general questions, please contact Kelli Robinson at kelli.robinson@bps101.net, or call (630) 937-8857.
