Congratulations to our very own Dylan Leon, who was awarded Student Athlete of the Month! Dylan shines as the Boys Volleyball teamโ€™s setter, known for his explosive plays and leadership on and off the court. Averaging eight strong attacks per match and leading with dedication, positivity, and sportsmanship, heโ€™s truly the glue of the team.

Dylan also excels academically with a high GPA and is praised by teachers for his maturity and drive. As he prepares for high school, he plans to pursue football, baseball, and eventually a career in sports psychologyโ€”all while chasing his dream of playing professional baseball for the Los Angeles Dodgers.

Thank you to Victorville Motors for sponsoring this recognition!

Greetings Rattler Community!

We hope everyone had a restful and joyful holiday break! Can you believe weโ€™re just a few weeks away from Christmas break and the end of the first semester? Now is the time for students to stay on top of their gradesโ€”remember, all grades lock at the semesterโ€™s end. Be sure to check Infinite Campus for updates and reach out to teachers through Talking Points if you need support.

This month, weโ€™re wrapping up volleyball and kicking off basketball! A huge shout-out to all our volleyball teams for their hard work this season, and another big cheer for all the students joining our basketball teams this year.

Letโ€™s finish the semester strong, Rattlers!

Greetings Rattler Community,

Last week, we sent home report cards for students who received a D or F in one or more classes. Donโ€™t worryโ€”itโ€™s not too late to improve! There are still plenty of opportunities for students to raise their grades before the semester ends. We encourage families to check Infinite Campus and reach out to teachers for additional support or information.

This week is our โ€œStranger Thingsโ€ Spirit Week, and weโ€™re excited to see everyone bring the energy! We hope students will show off their school spirit by dressing up each day and joining in on the lunch activities. Plus, rememberโ€”students can earn PBIS points for participating each day!

Lastly, a friendly reminder that next week is Thanksgiving Break, and there will be no school from November 24โ€“28. We hope everyone enjoys the time off.

Have a great week, Rattlers!

Greetings Rattler Community,

We hope everyone enjoyed the long weekend! This time of year brings plenty of well-deserved breaks, and we hope you were able to spend some time relaxing, connecting with family and friends, or doing whatever helps you recharge.

Although itโ€™s a short week with only three days, itโ€™s packed with excitementโ€”from volleyball games and ASB lunch activities to our upcoming sports and club photo day!

Progress Report 2 just closed, and report cards will be sent home for students who earned a D or F in any class. This marks the halfway point of Quarter 2, which means weโ€™re just four weeks away from the end of the semester! Now is the perfect time for students to check in on their grades, turn in any missing assignments, and finish the semester strong.

Have an amazing week, Rattlers!

Basketball Tryouts
Greetings Rattler Community,

Last week was filled with so much positive energy at RMS! We hosted our first volleyball games of the season and brought home several wins! We also celebrated our Renaissance students (those earning a 3.0 GPA and above) with delicious prizes and treats, and capped off the week with Halloween fun and plenty of creative costumes.

This week may be a bit slower, but itโ€™s the perfect time for students to check Infinite Campus and make sure all assignments are turned in before Progress Report 2 closes. If you have any questions about your studentโ€™s grades, please reach out to their teachers directly or connect through the Talking Points app.

Have a fantastic week, Rattlers!
