Support RMS Staff & Students with #2 Pencil Donations
As we head towards the end of the year teachers are finding that their supply of #2 pencils is running low. If you're able to, please donate regular #2 pencils to Redmond Middle School.
There is a collection box in the office. Bonus points if the pencils are pre-sharpened!

End of Year Celebration for Math Teams
Another great year for the RMS Math teams! The teams celebrated the end of competitive math season on Apr 27th, 2018 in the Commons. Coaches and students had a small celebration, appreciating the hard work of the high school coaches, and participating in a little fun non-competitive "Beat the Coaches" buzzer challenge. Congratulations to our Mathletes for their performance throughout the year and bringing laurels to the school. Go Grizzlies!

Kids and Race: Changing the Narrative
with Jasen Frelot
Thursday, May 17th, 7:00 - 9:00pm, Redmond Community Center
We are excited to welcome a new speaker to our LWPTSA Council/LWSD Parent Ed program this year on the topic of kids and race! Jasen Frelot will address how parents and educators can empower their children to be successful participants in an increasingly racialized world.
Learn from Jasen how the stories we unintentionally tell our children can have the greatest impact on their racial identity development and steps to empower families to address racial injustice in a loving, sustainable, humble way. Learn how to seize the teachable moments that arise when we least expect them!
Jasen Frelot is a father, early childhood educator, social justice advocate, and co-founder of Kids and Race Seattle, which has been featured in ParentMap magazine and on NPR. We hope you will attend this timely and insightful presentation!
