We CAN'T WAIT for you to be back in the building! Our summer custodial staff has been hard at work to make sure Rome is ready for the first day of school!! 🥳
A HUGE "Thank you" to Andy, Chris, Dottie, Mr. Wilson, and Mr. Jolly for all of their hard work this summer!
The list of projects is long- but totally worth sharing:

-All of the other classroom and office carpets have been shampooed.
-The door knobs (K-5 hallways) and door levers (6-8 hallway) have all been replaced with commercial grade door levers.
-The junior high hallway and classrooms have all been painted. The classroom floors have been stripped and waxed.
-The bathrooms by the lift have been painted and have had new toilet partitions installed.
-The bathrooms in the cafeteria have been painted.
