From Mrs. Angie Howard, 4th Grade Teacher and annual trip organizer:
"An outstanding group of Rolla Middle School 6th graders represented our school, community, and country with incredible class and respect during their recent trip to Washington, DC, May 25–27!
Students proudly represented RMS, Rolla Public Schools, and the Rolla community while visiting our nation’s capital and surrounding historic sites. Highlights of the trip included visiting with an Honor Flight group from Columbus, Ohio, meeting a Holocaust survivor at the Holocaust Museum, and touring the many memorials, monuments, and landmarks throughout Washington, DC.
Even with a 4-hour flight delay and spending nearly 6 hours total in the airport, students maintained positive attitudes, showed patience, and continued to represent RMS with pride. The experiences, conversations, and lessons learned during this trip will stay with these students for years to come. Students not only learned so much, but also had a lot of fun making memories with classmates along the way." ❤️🤍💙
