RPS Direct Update - February 24 (PM), 2021
Dear #RPSStrong Family, Another day of sunshine! RPS Live! Recap – If you need an extra dose of light and warmth, please make sure to watch the recording of tonight's RPS Live!, which featured five of our amazing first year teachers (listed below). Imagine for a second what it would be like to start your education career completely virtually. These five educators – and dozens of others in RPS – have done exactly that, and excelled. Their passion, dedication, expertise, and love was evident in every word they shared. On behalf of RPS, I want to express my profound gratitude to them! John Eiker, Martin Luther King Jr. Middle School Aszaleigh Jenkins-Rogers, Woodville Elementary School Julie Taylor, Thomas Jefferson High School/Richmond Technical Center Brandon Richardson, Henry L. Marsh Elementary School Hananiah Smith, Blackwell Elementary School
