Notes from Ms. Trena:

Change of Enrollment for 2022-23
Please communicate to our Registrar, Ms. Rose O'Brien, and Administration if you have any change of plans for enrollment for the 2022-23 school year at REMS.  If your family plan to transfer schools, please complete the necessary paperwork with us by Wednesday, June 1, 2022. 

Class Lists for 2022-23 
Teachers, Specialists and Administration will be creating class lists for the upcoming 2022-23 school year. We make many considerations such as academics, social/emotional needs, leadership, behavior, and personality of students and teachers to ensure proper placement. It is also a challenge to mix the kids up from year to year as we only have two classes of each grade level.

If you have programming needs (IEP, 504, GT, etc...) that you wish to bring to our attention, we ask that you email those to their teacher and myself.  Please refrain from requesting a particular teacher and instead offer us specific information about your student that will help us with placement. 

Class lists will be shared with families on July 15, 2022. 

School Lunches for the 2022-23 School Year 
Lunch accounts will resume charges for the 2022-23 school year. The waivers that were being provided by the USDA that made school meals free for all students are coming to an end. Families will need to purchase school meals in the 2022-2023 school year. We encourage all families to apply for the free/reduced lunch program. Please look for a flyer coming home with your students next week with more information.
