Thank you ROMS teachers and staff for all you do for our kids. My youngest of 3 is a 6th grader this year and just like her older siblings she has had an easy, smooth transition to middle school. I appreciate all your hard work and dedication to make middle school a fun and safe learning environment for our kids during these challenging times.

Hope you all have a relaxing winter break!
Love, the Czarnik Family

To all of the ROMS staff members,

We are brand new to ROMS this year with Jane in 6th grade.  There were a lot of nerves and unknowns, prior to the start of the year.  We have watched Jane grow so much already and we know that it is the relationships she has already formed with her teachers that has made this possible.  She feels comfortable, cared for, and she is having fun.  This is all we've ever wanted for our kids in school.

Thank you for all of the things you do each day that stem from your care for each child at ROMS.  We are so grateful for you all!

Warmly,
Laurie & John Ovies

A huge shout out to the building administrators. You are the first to bear the brunt of all the criticisms, concerns and questions. Attending to the needs of over 1000 students and families, is a tremendous task. Every encounter we've had with you has been sincere, patient and kind. We have no idea where you find the time in the day to give to our community in the way that you do, while also making time for your personal lives. Your efforts do not go unnoticed. Thank you for showing up everyday! We sincerely hope this break will offer you some rest and relaxation. The Rogers Family

Thank you ROMS staff! The dedication you each put into your work and love for children is evident each day as I listen to my 6th grader tell us about his day. Especially after the past few years in education, you deserve these expressions and gratitude and so much more.

To our wonderful ROMS teachers and support staff. Thank you seems  inadequate for the care, compassion, knowledge and safety you provide for my boys each day. They feel safe when they walk through those doors and considering the world we live in, that makes a mom feel at ease. They have/had some quality teachers that take the time to get to know them. These are the teachers that stick with students. So many to list, but if you have/had a Maeso boy, please know that we appreciate every minute you put into their education. Being a classroom teacher is a hard job but you are all doing an amazing job!#ROMSteachersarethebest

As our family comes to the end of our 6 years at ROMS, I’d just like to thank all of the staff we have encountered over that period of time.  Whether you are ASD or Special Education staff who were there for my step-kids or general education for them and my daughter, you are all special in your own ways.  We appreciate you.

Thank you so much for all your hard work and dedication during my child's three years at ROMS. Middle school is challenging enough without a pandemic and the recent tragic school shooting. We appreciate you!

# data[].attributes.body
Your jobs have doubled since COVID and, now, have tripled with the increased violence and threats to schools.  Your focus on our children's social and emotional health is appreciated and revealing of the reason you are educators.  You work tirelessly to teach and support our kids.  I am happy to be part of the ROMS community.

Leah’s teachers and counselor - you are wonderful. Leah is learning so much! Ms. Kocis - thanks for the wonderful book suggestions and I thought the donuts were such a nice touch last week.  Ms. Merrick - Leah loves your class and the good times in math! Mr. Betman thank you for replying quickly when we have questions. Ms. Torres - both my kids have learned so much from you.
Thank you all for your hard work and I missed many that we appreciate. Hugs.

Ms. Zissis, Ms Masouris, Mr Sebastian, Ms Miko, Mr Foreman and Ms Taylor,

Thank you everyday for teaching these kids in an unprecedented times. No one ever expected a pandemic, the trauma of isolation and a heavy world made even weightier. But everyday, you all show up, smiles on your faces to educate kids, so that they can become the great thinkers, the inventors and the helpers themselves! Thank you can’t even come close to how appreciative I am for each of you everyday. If the last 2 years has taught me or reinforced to me anything, it’s that we are not all called to teach, and not everyone can or should do it. You are all incredible people. Thank you for choosing to be teachers.

Thank you to all the staff, teachers and admin at ROMS! Cora comes home each day a better and fuller person. Your energy and expertise does not go unnoticed by those you touch in your special way. It’s been a rough couple of years for our students and have helped brighten their paths though these crazy times. Thank you from the Trebilcock family and Happy Holidays.

The honest and supportive talk you had with your first hour last Thursday meant a lot to Quinn.  Thanks for making PE engaging, educational and fun...he looks forward to it (he has even asked to make sure he doesn't have to miss days that he attends, which says a lot)!

Ella sings your praises every day! She loves choir and thinks the world of you. Thank you for helping kids make space for art and performance every day!

Thank you for everything you do. Day in and day out. Many things which likely go on behind the scenes and may go unnoticed to many. We know you’ve got our children’s best interest at heart. We support and appreciate you all. 💙

Hi Mr. Homrocky. Hope you’re doing well. Just wanted to let you know that my two older kids have/had you. Gwen has you now and Lucas had you previously. They both speak so highly of you and speak of you often. You’ve made an impact on both and I thought you should know that you’re a light in the school day.

Your approachable and caring demeanor, not to mention your organization, do not go unnoticed.  Quinn tells me that you are a good teacher and he likes your class. Thank you for ALL you do at ROMS and for the PTA!

Thank you ROMS staff! My kid comes home happy every day and runs into school each morning. Mr. Kohring, Oliver says you are the best and he loves your class. Miss Ellenberger, Oliver said you were the only teacher to ask the kids if they wanted to talk about the Oxford shooting. Thank you for that. Thank you for being there for our kids. I appreciate you.

Thank you for making a personal connection with your students.  Quinn came home last week saying how much he likes you (he is a tough critic) and was thankful for the donuts!
