Welcome to the Administrators Corner. My name is Tim Boyle, principal of Frances C. Richmond Middle School (RMS). Each Friday I will use this space to keep you updated on important events and topics from our school. This "Richmond Friday Focus" will supplement my twitter feed (in the column to the right), where I will post events important to our community. You will also find Anissa Morrison's, Associate Principal, twitter feed. We welcome any and all feedback.

I hope you find all of this information helpful, informative and fun.

Regards,
Tim

Thoughts from the Rolling Desk

Clone day in the cafe!

Wow, it was a fun spirit week.  From a day filled with jerseys from every different sport imaginable, to a lobby full of Adam Sandler look-alikes, to the beach vibes shared today, the school was buzzing with positive energy and completed projects.  We look forward to continuing these good feelings as we move toward a fully packed 4th quarter.  

At this point, however, we want to focus on rest and restoration brought on by the April break.  In the spirit of a shorter focus, we offer some fun photos and important information.

More news from the Women in Math essay contest.  We shared earlier that Alan Zhang had won the contest and that Peter Holman had earned an honorable mention among the roughly 130 entries from 28 US states, 2 Canadian provinces, and 11 other countries.  We found out this week that this is the first time in the history of the contest that 2 winners came from 1 school.  Way to go RMS!
