 RIVERTON MIDDLE SCHOOL INFORMATION

  • Enriched Remote Learning - Riverton Schools will remain in Enriched Remote Learning until at least the end of the 1st quarter.  The plan will be evaluated monthly.  
  • Students should engage with their teachers and coursework each day.  For each day they do not engage (complete their attendance sheet, complete work, attend a meet), they are marked absent.  Attendance letters will be mailed soon and truancy will begin to be involved when students are not working from home.  
  • We are offering both live and recorded opportunities to engage with content and the teachers at RMS.  We highly recommend attending the LIVE sessions to interact with teachers and peers.  We do know this isn't always possible for all, but the opportunity to interact with teachers is critical during this time.  Videos are recorded and posted for those who can't view the lessons live.  Teachers can see when students aren't watching the videos.  Students need to watch the videos in order to be successful with the lessons.  Teachers are able to run reports to determine time spent in programming.   
  • Parent Technology Survey - Please fill out this survey if you need support with the technology platforms that RMS is using.  
    If you are having connectivity issues please seek support.  
  • New RMS Webpage!  From www.rivertonschools.org select Middle School, or bookmark this link!
  • Students are able to check out library books.  Please click HERE to request a book from our Librarian, Mrs. Dykstra.
  • Virtual Learning Webinar Sign Up Please join us each Tuesday in September for virtual training and information on how to support your students during remote/virtual learning.  This series is being offered free of charge and will be presented by our BIST Consultants.  Sign in begins at 6:15 PM, with informational sessions starting at 6:30 PM.  Each webinar will conclude by 7:30 PM.

       Welcome back to RMS for the 2020-21 school year!

      We communicated last Wednesday that our Board Of Education voted to return to our Hybrid Learning Model on Monday, September 14.  Extenuating circumstances have caused us to reverse the decision and continue our Enriched Remote Learning.  More information will be communicated about a timeline and how we will proceed the remainder of the school year following the Board Of Education Regular Meeting on Monday, September 14.  All communication will be sent out by Dr. Polanin.
