🦌🍁 RLBMS Hunter Safety Reminder 🍁🦌
As hunting season gets underway, we want to wish all our students, families, and community members a safe and responsible season!
A few important reminders:
🔸 Hunter Safety First:
Always follow PA Game Commission guidelines, wear blaze orange, know your target and beyond, and never hunt alone.
🔸 Share Your Success!
Students are welcome to bring pictures of their harvest to school for our annual RLBMS Game Gallery. No weapons in photo. Please bring photos and information to Mr. Hildebrand.
We can’t wait to celebrate your traditions and see your photos. Have a safe, respectful, and memorable season, Hornets! 🐝🧡🏔️


As we head into the holiday break, we want to wish all of our students, families, and community members a warm and wonderful Thanksgiving. We are grateful for your support, partnership, and the incredible students who make Rock L. Butler Middle School such a special place.
May your day be filled with good food, laughter, and time spent with the people who matter most.
Have a safe and relaxing holiday weekend — we’ll see you after the break!
🍁 Happy Thanksgiving from The Rock! 🍁

As part of our focus on filling in some of the fun “missed moments” of childhood, our sixth graders spent today creating classic paint-hand turkeys—an activity many never had the chance to try when they were younger.
In the lively chaos of an early dismissal, students rolled up their sleeves and made colorful, quirky handprint turkeys to bring home and share with their families. They may not be perfect, but that’s exactly the point—they’re creative, silly, and full of personality.
We hope these little works of art make it safely to your fridge door or even your Thanksgiving table. Happy almost–Thanksgiving! 🦃✨

The library students at CL had a special visitor last week, veteran Damon Smith. He brought in his uniforms and shared stories from his service. Thanks for your service, Mr. Smith!








Today, The Nutrition Group provided a special Thanksgiving feast — complete with freshly carved turkey! A huge thank you to Head Teacher Mr. Hildebrand and Principal Dr. Miller for stepping in as our official turkey carvers.
Their leadership, teamwork, and willingness to jump in made the event even more meaningful for our students. We’re grateful for the positive example they set every day at RLBMS!
