RAMSEY HIGH SCHOOL

AP French students created their fables based on "La bise et le soleil (The Wind and the Sun), then completed a scavenger hunt. What great imagination they have! One story even featured Mr. Wolf and Mr. Jenkins and RHS music program.

RHS Cercle Français (French Club) is bustling with creativity and French chats while making chrysanthemums for La Toussaint (All Saints' Day)!

Sophomores in Mrs. Shahinian, Ms. Rodriguez, and Mrs. Colucci’s classes wrapped up their Understanding the American Identity unit with an interactive Persian Immersion Event in the Media Center! Having just read "Darius the Great is not Okay," students explored how culture and history shape identity through 3D virtual tours of ancient Persepolis, Ta'arof roleplay, Persian dance instruction, traditional card games, and tea. Special thanks to our Media Center staff and teachers for bringing learning to life! ✨🏛️💃

⬆️ Which Way?➡️. Student Travelers Practice Navigation Skills at Skylands Manor
The group of students traveling to Central Europe during Spring Break took a short trip to Skylands Manor on Thursday, October 8. Students broke into teams and completed a scavenger hunt that challenged them to navigate a new location on their own, collaborate together, and get to know each other. The beautiful Fall weather was the cherry on top of a great day out! Congratulations to team 1 -- Sofia, Rocco, and John -- for taking first place by visiting all ten locations within one hour.

Irene Kolesar returned to RHS in celebration of her 100th Birthday! She attended Ramsey High School until 1942 when her father signed her out of school to go work in a factory sewing children’s clothes in Suffern, NY. Irene happily swapped out her birthday tiara for a Ramsey Alumni hat. She summarized her secrets to success in life as follows: work hard, be good to others, work as a team, and don't dwell on setbacks or disappointments...move on! HAPPY BIRTHDAY Irene. 🐏💪💙💛👍

Rams, we saw your hats and tie-dye! Let's keep the Week of Respect going!

Today, 40 Ramsey High School students trained as election workers for the upcoming November election. We also welcomed 10 seventh-grade civics students as observers to see the civic process in action. Keep an eye out for our RHS students at the polls on Election Day throughout Ramsey!

Unified Club is excited to launch their disability awareness series. Every month, our Unified leadership team will highlight a topic celebrated to help raise awareness, educate students and staff, and promote inclusion in our community. This month, Hannah and the morning announcement crew helped share out some fast facts about National Service Dog Month. Swipe to learn more and be on the lookout for our flyers around the school & resources in the Media Center. What will we be celebrating next month, Ramland?!

Check out these smiling faces at Unified Club's first lunch social of the school year! We connected with new and old friends as we participated in various serenity stations to end the school week. Stay tuned for our October events, Unified Rams and don't forget to sign up to be a member. Making inclusion a way of life is what we are all about, and YOU can help us continue to make a difference in our school and community.

The incredible part of building community is the relationships our students get to make beyond the walls of their classroom. RHS's S.T.E.P. (18-21) program has focused on connecting with other neighboring transition programs to build life skills, interpersonal skills, and self-determination. Nothing like a Pizza-Making 101 class with Mahwah's Lifepath Program to get us practicing how to follow a recipe, learn to cook for ourselves, and kick start some new friendships. Thank you, Mahwah for being the best hosts!

What a turnout at today's activity fair, Unified Rams! The Unified student leadership team was so happy to connect with old and new friends. We cannot wait to make a difference at RHS and in our community TOGETHER. Inclusion lives HERE, Ramland.
