🦌🍁 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! 🐝🧡🏔️

🎨🦃 Sixth Grade Handprint Turkeys!

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! 🦃✨
