Enter Your Student Directory Information

Each year, the Rosa Parks PTA creates a student directory for the benefit of its members. We receive student names, addresses and phone numbers from the school, but we give you the opportunity to provide additional information, such as parent/guardian names, alternate phone numbers, emails, and additional household information for situations such as joint custody.

This year we are collecting the information online, which makes it easier for us to create the directory, and saves you a stamp and envelope! This link will take you to a page on inolney.com that hosts our Rosa Parks PayPal account functions as well as the directory information input

Appreciation committee is in need of bakers

The RPMS Teacher Appreciation committee is in need of bakers for our December event. We are continuing the tradition of providing the staff with an assortment of holiday cookies. We are asking people to make a batch or two of cookies (no chocolate chip please) and drop them off on Sunday, December 16th at Carolyn Quinn’s house or on Monday, December 17th at the school during the morning hours. Carolyn’s address is 17516 Ashton Green Drive, Sandy Spring. Once all the cookies are received they will be repackaged so that each staff member receives a varied assortment of holiday treats in festive wrapping. Please contact Carolyn Quinn at 301-570-6561 or (carolynquinn at verizon dot net) if you are available to bake. Thanks in advance for contributing; we know what a busy time of year this is!
