Please know that if you have a need that is not addressed here, you can always dial 2-1-1 for available resource information in Muskegon county. Stay safe!

All of the RPMS teachers “met” at some point today to start problem solving. While details of the next step our governor will take are still somewhat unknown and we can’t solve all of the problems right now, we definitely can rally together to come up with the best plan to progress learning for our students. Growth mindset is not just for students as many of the adults are finding new ways to do business. We will share more soon. We’re all in this together!
