School Photos/ID's
School ID photos are taken during schedule pick up. This year 6th graders are scheduled on August 27th (Bulldawg Bound) and 7th/8th graders are scheduled on August 23rd.

You can pre-order photos online through Lifetouch here: https://my.lifetouch.com using Picture Day ID #LM728012Y0 (even though the dates might say August 27th and August 23rd - your child will only get pictures on their scheduled day NOT both) Make up pictures are schedule for October 15th.

8th Grade DC Trip
ROMS 8th graders have the chance to go to Washington DC. This year the trip will take place May 6-10, 2019. Information is available here: http://www.royaloakschools.org/middle-school/washington-dc-field-trip/
Dawg Walk
The Dawg Walk is ROMS single yearly PTA fundraiser! This year is will be October 5th. The Dawg Walk is a great time - we have games, snacks, raffles and while the kids make money toward their 8th grade DC trip it also allows us to fund so many educational/events throughout the year. But it takes a TON of work so please consider donating or volunteering!!
ROMS School Year Calendar

You can find the ROMS school year calendar here. We also try to add events to our Facebook page so you can get reminders on your phone. But you have to be a PTA member to join our group - so join today!!

Curriculum night
ROMS Curriculum Night gives you a chance to walk through your child's schedule, meet all their teachers, and hear class expectations and guidelines from each teacher. Your child does NOT need to attend.
On Curriculum Night you should come with a copy of your child's schedule (you can print this out in the Parent Portal or just view it on your phone), head to your child's 1st hour, a notification will sound when it's time for you to move on to the next class.
Parent/Teacher Conferences
Parent/Teacher Conferences at ROMS are usually located in the Gym/Cafe. Each teacher is given a table and a small row of chairs for a waiting area. Bring a list of your child's teachers so you can speak with each one. There is no schedule and you don't have to go through the classes in order. Speaking time with each teacher is limited, so if you have issues that need more than a few minutes, please make an appointment to speak to that teacher. You do NOT need to bring your student to P/T Conferences.
