RVMS Best Teacher Ever award is passed on from Jenniffer Leonhardt to Math teacher, Melissa Tippit. Ms. Leonhardt says, "She is always looking out for our students and doing what is best for them. Her positive outlook and upbeat mentality is contagious. Students absolutely love her and how she is invested in their education. She's always looking for new education opportunities for herself and shares with everyone. As a parent, Mrs. Tippett has helped my child become a better student. My student never wanted to be at school never wanted to do their work. Now my student is excited to come to school and do the work. I am so very thankful for the change that she has instilled in my child." Congratulations Mrs. Tippett! ❤️

RVMS Best Teacher Ever award is passed on from Mr. Romain to Ms. Jenniffer Leonhardt. Mr. Romain says, "She is the glue that holds so very much of the school together. One day, you come to school and there is a new score board on campus because of her efforts. She runs student council, color run, and helps coach wrestling to name a few. All behind the scenes. As wonderful as all these things are, the reason behind all her efforts outweighs everything. The KIDS." Congratulations Ms. Leonhardt! Best Staff Ever award is passed from Rowena Thompson to Teacher Aide Michelle Dennee. Rowena says, "I'm thrilled to nominate Michelle Dennee for Best Staff Ever! Some might think that she's strict, but I've witnessed her genuine care for her students' success. What impresses me most about Michelle is her concern for her colleagues. During our last assembly, she checked in on Ms. Tippit when she wasn't feeling well, showing a level of compassion that extends beyond the classroom. Michelle's dedication to both students and staff makes her a true asset to our team. That's why I'm honored to nominate her for Best Staff Ever!" Congratulations Mrs. Dennee!


RVMS students collected over 600 items for the food drive! 6th grade won the competition with 367 items and will get ice cream floats during lunch on Thursday. Mrs. Myers's ELKS time class had the most donations and had a pizza party today, and William Irwin was the student who collected the most items to donate. It was a great team effort for families in need. Great job! ❤️
