It’s National Speech- Language Pathologist Day! Today we would like to celebrate our wonderful Speech Pathologist, Mrs. Slough!

Ruth Doyle 6th grade GT students took a field trip last week. Students visited Little Rock Central High School National Historic Site and the AGFC Witt Stephens Jr. Nature Center. They enjoyed learning more about Arkansas history and the biodiversity of the Natural State.

Happy Nurses Week to our fabulous nurse, Mrs. Harper! Thank you for the countless ways you care for our students and staff each day. From bandages to big worries, you always bring comfort, kindness, and calm to RDMS. We appreciate all you do in more ways than words can say!

RDMS teachers and staff would like to say a huge thank you to our amazing PTO! Thank you for all of the treats, snacks, and food this week. It has been a wonderful week!

Ruth Doyle Middle School F amilies, Golden Tickets have been distributed to students who either showed growth or scored a Level 3 or 4 on the ATLAS assessment. This ticket serves as proof that your child is eligible for a principal-excused absence on Monday, May 11. Congratulations to all of our students for their hard work and achievement!

Thank you to the RDMS administration for providing Tacos 4 Life to teachers and staff! #RDMStrong

Students who show growth on the ATLAS will be excused from school on Monday, May 11th! The previous message had the wrong date. RDMS is ready to reward all of the students for their hard work!

RDMS ATLAS testing continues tomorrow and Wednesday! Here are a few steps that can help RDMS students do their best! Students should get a good night's sleep. Eating a healthy breakfast fuels a student's mind and body for focus. Students should make sure their Chromebooks are charged. Testing expectations should be followed. Please make sure students arrive on time or early to school. Students should stay positive knowing they have been working and preparing for this all year! Students are earning tickets by doing these things for testing. This Thursday and Friday, students will use these tickets for rewards. Students who show growth on the ATLAS will be excused from school on Monday, May 12th!! #RDMStrong

Happy Principal’s Day to an incredible leader! 🎉 Mr. Kelly, your dedication, guidance, and commitment to our school community make a difference every single day. Thank you for inspiring both students and staff, and for always leading with integrity and heart. We appreciate all that you do—today and every day! 👏🍎

Happy School Lunch Hero Day! 🍎🥪

Today, we are sending a huge "Thank You" to our amazing cafeteria teams. From the very first breakfast served to the last lunch tray cleared, these heroes keep our students fueled, healthy, and ready to learn, all with a smile. We are so grateful for the hard work and nourishment you provide our schools every single day!
