Rockingham County Middle

Did your student bring home their picture day order form?

Just in case it didn't make it home (it may still be coming home today with your child) - I'm sharing the online ordering information directly with you.

My FAVORITE benefit of the online ordering is that your online gallery is AUTOMATICALLY sent to your email and you don't have to worry about the QR code coming home from picture day!

BRING YOUR BEST SMILES!
PICTURE DAY is ONE WEEK AWAY!
RCMS will have Fall Picture Day on Wednesday, Sept. 17 (next week!)
Look for a pre-order form to come home today with your student! (Pre-ordering your package saves you $$$!)

It's never too late to start planning ahead!

Hi parents! The link to request bus transportation for the 25-26 school year is now live. Woohoo! I encourage you to go ahead and complete this before this school year ends to avoid delays at the start of the new school year getting your child assigned to one of our yellow buses. Even if you are already assigned to a bus, this must be completed for the new school year. To request school bus transportation for the 2025-2026 school year-click this link: https://rockapex.maxapex.net/apex/rcstech/r/rcs_sum_trans/1?session=29156001905907
