Roll RMS Latinists Win at Latin Declamatio Competition 2008-09 School Year Eighth Grade Vision Boards Another end-of-the year program that dominates the main bulletin board in June is entitled "8th Grade Vision Boards," and was initiated by RMS guidance counselor Judy Arnone. Each of the 8th graders made their own "vision board" as a way of guiding and shaping their future choices. It's very visual and has a lasting and important impact on these young middle school students, who will be faced with many difficult choices as they head into high school. A text entitled The Vision Board: The Secret to an Extraordinary Life by Joyce Schwarz (Author) guides this creative effort. >See Slideshow Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory Comes to the Middle School Suffolk County Latin Certamen At the Middle School level, Riverhead teams took both second and third place.

RMS LATINISTS
Holiday Mail for Heroes Chris Malanga's Technology Class Featured on Business Week's Website This was a five-year grant, which just ran out, that was designed to spill over into science and technology. The idea was to engage in projects that called for merging curriculum areas and that resulted in a final physical product (like the egg crash cars) utilizing the technology, science and math curriculum the students had been studying in their classes. Someone in the consortium group had a contact at BusinessWeek and shared what Mr. Malanga was doing in Riverhead. BusinessWeek then sent out a representative to cover the story. (Someone from BusinessWeek may also be returning to do a video of Mr. Malanga's "room decorating" project later this year.) The article that ran on the BusinessWeek website is copied and linked. >More Di Increasing English Skills One Scene at a Time 2007-08 School Year RMS Poets and Their Poetry RMS Takes ALL Three Places in Declamatio Scenes

(April 3, 2009 - Riverhead, NY) The Riverhead Middle School proudly presented its very first spring musical production, "Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory.” The event featured unique special effects, a beautiful and talented Willy Wonka, and an endearing and very talented Charlie Bucket. Each of the show's "golden ticket winners" (and their families) gave enthusiastic and convincing performances in their chuckle producing performances. "More, More, More", sang out Steven Keller as Augustus Gloop in the show, and I think the audience overwhelmingly agreed, "We'd like to see more shows like this one at the Middle School." >
(November 2008) Riverhead Latinists traveled to Stony Brook University for the Suffolk County Classics Society’s 6th Annual Declamatio, an academic contest for which students memorize and then dramatically recite (or “declaim,” hence the Latin word “Declamatio”) a passage from Latin literature (ancient or modern) to a panel of judges. The Riverhead Latinists maintained their winning record by taking 10 out of a possible 13 places while competing against nine other schools from Long Island (which included Half Hollow Hills, Commack, Mercy High School, Three Village, Port Jefferson, Westhampton Beach, etc.). In the first five years of the Declamatio, Riverhead has established itself as the Latin program to beat. >
