5th grade GT student, Jaxon, competed in the Economics Arkansas YES Expo Day in Little Rock today! In the fall, Jaxon created an original product- the Case Safe pencil case- and wrote a detailed business plan. His plan was selected as one of the Top 25 in the state of Arkansas out of 75 submissions! Today, Jaxon confidently spoke with judges, engaged customers, and even made a few sales! Congratulations on your hard work, Jaxon!!! 🧠💪💰🏆

Feeling especially grateful for our community today. Our students had a wonderful opportunity to practice real-world skills through a special coffee cart for our staff, and it would not have been possible without the generosity of Shadrachs Coffee.

Because of their kindness, our students were able to take drink orders, prepare and serve hot and iced coffees, and even make muffins for the staff. It was an incredible hands-on experience that helped them build confidence, communication skills, and teamwork.

The teachers at Ruth Doyle Middle School definitely appreciated the coffee, but even more than that, we appreciated seeing our students shine.

A sincere thank you to Shadrachs for supporting our students and showing such kindness to our staff. We truly love and value this community.

RDMS Families,
I need to correct information that was shared on the Washington, DC trip flyer that was recently sent out. Some of the dates listed on the flyer are incorrect.
The interest meeting will be held on February 19 @ 6 PM in the RDMS cafeteria. The $49 sign-up fee will be in effect through February 26. The February 12th date, listed on the flyer, is incorrect.
Thank you for understanding, and I apologize for any confusion this may have caused.
