Principal's Message

Principal RisseWelcome to Rosemont Middle School!

Honor, Excellence, and Pride

Hello Spartan Families,

Welcome back to school! It’s a new year and we are excited to welcome our incoming 7th graders, returning 8th graders and students new to Rosemont. Rosemont has received numerous awards and accolades over the years, but our greatest source of pride is our strong teaching and support staff. As a school community, our priority is students’ social and emotional well-being and academic progress. 

This year our theme is “Activate Your Integrity.” You can see that “AI” is embedded in our theme. As the world changes around us and technology becomes ever more present, we know that students will need to learn how to use these tools appropriately and effectively. Even more, we believe that integrity is an essential characteristic and strengthening integrity enables students to make good decisions in their academic, social and emotional lives. 

We will continue to focus on attendance in order to ensure that all students come to school daily, engage in learning and achieve academic and personal success. We are asking our parents and guardians to join us in this effort as the consequences of poor attendance and chronic absenteeism are serious and can affect the opportunities students have in high school and beyond.

Classes begin on Wednesday, August 20 at 9:30 (8:30 for Zero Period) as it is a Banking Day. Daily schedule M, T, Th and F is 8:30 - 3:11 and 9:30 - 3:11 every Wednesday.

Your student's schedule is available on Q parent portal (Parent Portal) and Q student portal (Student Portal) beginning August 13 at 4:00.

All students arrive through the front gate on Rosemont Avenue or the back gate on Alabama Street between 8:15 - 8:30 a.m. Students who arrive after the 8:30 bell will be considered late. Dismissal will be from the front and back entrances as well. 

Snack and lunch will be offered daily at no charge. Additional items such as bottled water, cookies or a second serving may be purchased. Food deliveries are not allowed.

Check your email for our electronic newsletter which is sent every Sunday evening with regular announcements, news and information.

Here’s to another great year!

Sincerely,
Principal Suzanne Risse
Activate Your Integrity!
