Welcome back from Winter Break!
The Red Bud Media Center recently sponsored a fun valentine guessing contest. Students, faculty, and staff were invited to “Guess How Many Sweet-Tart Hearts" were in the jar. Out of 380 student guesses, one 7th grade student guessed the exact number of hearts in the jar. That lucky student is Janiha Austin! She correctly guessed 578 pieces of candy! Congratulations to Janiah! Her correct guess won her the jar of candy and a few other treats. We had 34 teacher and staff guesses. There were several close ones but the teacher who was the closest to 578 was Mr. Jimmy Holbert. He guessed 567. Way to go Mr. Holbert! He won a smaller amount of Sweet-Tarts and a Chick-fil-A gift card.
On Thursday, 8th grade students from RBMS had the opportunity to tour Sonoraville High School and the College and Career Academy. Students were able to hear about all of the electives that are offered in high school and ask questions in preparation for class registration after Winter Break. A special thank you to the Sonoraville Recreation Department and Sonoraville Baptist Church for hosting the entire 8th grade for a pizza lunch! #GreaterThings #TogetherRBMS #TogetherGCS #rbms
Red Bud Middle School is proud to announce multiple new hires for the 2025-2026 school year.
We are blessed to bring three former RBMS and SHS students back home to begin or continue their teaching career. Please join me in welcoming Halley Adams (7th ELA), Bailey Brewer (7th ELA) and Morgan Bagley (6th math) back home to The Bud!
We are also blessed to add Sydney Shipley to our Phoenix Family. Mrs. Shipley is the reigning GCS Teacher of the Year, has two sons currently at SHS (Owen - 9th) and RBMS (Eli - 7th), and her husband Eric currently serves as the RBMS Athletic Booster Club president. Mrs. Shipley will be a wonderful addition as a 6th grade math teacher.
Finally, we are very excited to move Jackie Cascio into the Instructional Lead Teacher role for next school year. Mrs. Cascio has done amazing work as an 8th Grade Team Leader and science teacher, and we know she will have a significant impact on our teachers and our students in this new leadership and support role.
Please join me in welcoming and congratulating these fantastic educators! #GreaterThings #TogetherRBMS #TogetherGCS

57 students recently represented Gordon County Schools in the Northwest Georgia Regional Technology Competition. They joined students from surrounding schools to share technology projects in many different categories. Gordon County sent students from eight schools, and all students were local technology competition winners in their project category and grade level.
This was the largest team that Gordon County has ever sent to the regional competition, and all students used their creative, collaborative, and critical thinking skills to develop unique and innovative projects that make our district proud.
Special thanks to the following Gordon County Schools staff who assisted with the local or regional technology competitions: Kalee Bennett, Jackie Brown, Rachel Carter, Brandi Evans, Taylor Fain, Adam Fite, Leigh-Ann Hunt, Chuck Langston, Danny Lowrance, Bryson McGuire, Chad Moore, Caroline Stephens, and Melissa Vincent.
Thirty-four RBMS students represented both Red Bud Middle School and Gordon County Schools at the NW Regional Technology Competition held at Georgia Highlands College in Rome on January 31. All the students did a terrific job in their specific categories. Five students placed 1st and will move on to the state competition later this year. Haidyn Jones will move on to state in animation. Slater Morss and Carson Grantham will move on in project programming, and Dalton Evans and Connor Broome will move on in mobile applications. Go, Phoenix!!!
