Coach Stiles’ and Coach Talley’s Career Awareness students have been studying different careers the last few weeks. Students have researched educational requirements, salaries, training, skills needed, and several other characteristics about a variety of careers!
Our students are saying aloha to healthy choices and goodbye to drugs! Loving all the bright colors, Hawaiian shirts, and positive energy around campus today. #RedRibbonWeek
Our 7th grade PLTW Medical Detectives have been diving into our neurological processes for the past several weeks. Our culmination was the dissection of a sheep's brain. The students were able to identify and label different parts of the brain in pairs. This, in conjunction with previous lessons about abnormal medical information, will help students identify the causes of problems patients have when they go to the doctor. We have located growths in several patients that have adversely affected them and are able to prescribe possible treatments. Way to go Medical Detectives!
Blending in with healthy choices! Students and staff dressed in camo yesterday to show that 'drugs can’t find me'. #RedRibbonWeek

In our Medical Detectives classes we plated E. Coli and added antibiotic disks to see how much the Zone of Inhibition was in order to prescribe the correct antibiotic for our patient. Way to go Gales!

PLTW Medical Detectives is gathering bacteria from several locations to see how much bacteria will grow in our petri dishes. Students documented where they gathered, practicing proper technique to streak the plates. Over the next couple of weeks they will see their bacteria grow and try to identify what it is.

Students had the chance to uncover artifacts, make discoveries, and learn what it’s like to be an archaeologist in the field. This interactive experience brought history to life and showed the importance of curiosity, observation, and teamwork.
We are so proud of our students for digging deep into learning—literally! ❤️🖤

We are excited to partner with Ms. Heather Meeker through the Gear Up program at Arkansas Tech University! Mrs. Meeker works closely with RMS to provide students with opportunities, resources, and support that prepare them for future success in school and beyond. Her dedication helps open doors for our students and encourages them to dream big. We are grateful for the impact she makes on our Gale family!
At RMS, we believe in Every Student… Every Assignment… Every Day. That’s why we use the ICU Database to help students stay on top of their work and build good habits for learning.
What it is: Teachers log missing assignments into the ICU Database. Parents/guardians are notified by text and email if their student has missing work—and again when the work has been turned in.
Why it matters: Completing work is essential for learning, and we want to partner with families to support student success.
Who: All 6th & 7th grade students.
When: Missing assignments are logged each Monday, beginning August 25th.
How it works: Students are notified of missing work, given time to complete it, and supported during advisory if extra help is needed.
Together, we can help our Gales finish strong each quarter and stay caught up!
