This week at The Bud...
All RBMS students took the Winter MAP test in December. Students that met growth goals on both the math and reading portions of the test had their name entered into a drawing for a $50 gift card. We had over 160 students meet or exceed growth goals in both areas, so we drew two names from each grade level to win $50 gift cards.
Congratulations to these winners!
6th grade: Liam Townsend and Nicolas Betancourt
7th grade: Emily Monroy and Corbyn Morgan (not pictured)
8th grade: Kallie Rogers and Luke Harkins
