Summer Program In our summer program, leadership students learned valuable production skills while creating an amazing Batman themed promotion video for our bottle and can drive. They wrote the script, planned the shots, used cameras and lighting, acted, and edited during the 4 week session. Students this summer also continued to work on the chair recovering project, mulching flower beds, and preparing bulletin boards for the start of the new school year.
RMS Healthy Living
In continuation with our Fuel Up to Play assembly students kick off the new year by learning about nutrition and maintaining a healthy diet which includes exercising and staying away from drugs and alcohol.
Red Ribbon Essay Contest
During Red Ribbon week leadership students host a cafeteria campaign, inviting students to take the pledge and dedicate their lives to living drug and alcohol free. They also made school wide announcements and challenged students to an essay and logo contest, while other classes participated by getting involved in the door decorating contest.
Hat & Mitten Collection
As the cold weather moves in, RYLM promotes a school wide hat and mitten collection to distribute to younger children in the community. Leadership students give back by visiting elementary students and presenting tips on winter weather safety.
FCCLA Fall Leadership Conference A select group of our 8th grade FCCLA members were able to attend the fall leadership conference near our state's capitol. They were able to learn about teamwork, public speaking and gained other valuable skills from the various breakout sessions.
Cancer Awareness Throughout the month of October our leadership students decorated pumpkins and sold them during home varsity football games. All proceeds were donated to local families within the community who were battling various forms of the disease.
Fuel Up To Play 60 During our Fuel Up To Play Assembly students participate in physical challenges, learn about healthy eating habits and gain valuable information on limiting screen media use.
