GRMS Mission Statement:
With the help of our SAC (School Advisory Committee) and input from students and staff, we developed a new mission statement last year. The short and simple statement encompasses our daily objective.
The mission of Gamble Rogers Middle School is to support the development of positive character and academic achievement that meet the unique needs of each student.
Vision:
GRMS will be a progressive school in which students are prepared to achieve at their highest level, preparing them for college and career, surrounded by an engaged community that is proud of its educational accomplishments.
DO YOU KNOW OUR POLICIES
Thank you for your understanding and compliance as we work together for all students’ success!
Overview
Please be aware of the following policies below that may affect your student at GRMS during 25-26 school year.
Dress Code Policy
The dress and grooming of our students should contribute to the health and safety of the individual, promote a positive educational environment and not disrupt the educational activities and processes of the school. Gamble Rogers Middle School follows the school district’s dress code guidelines explained in the 25 – 26 Student Code of Conduct
Provisional Transportation Waiver
The St. Johns County School District Provisional Transportation Waiver Program (PTWP) extends transportation services to students assigned to district schools based on space availability and criteria. The PTWP Form can be completed in BusPlanner.
From The Front Office
Drop-Off Items
All items (clothes, shoes, monies, keys, books, etc.) Must Be In A Bag (except band instruments, homework and lunch boxes) labeled with the student’s name and grade.
Thank you for your help with this!
Early Check-Out
If you need to take your student out of school early, the latest time that he/she can be picked up is at 1:20PM (12:20PM on Wednesdays). Only parents, guardians, or other individuals identified on the student’s contact list, with appropriate identification, will be allowed to check-out the student.
Note – we do not send children to the front office until you have arrived and shown your photo ID to the front office staff.
Food Policy
Stingray families — Parents will not be permitted to drop off food from outside sources to their student during the school day. This includes all fast food/restaurant meals.
Thank you for your understanding.
School Clinic
If your child calls or texts you from their phone/watch and states they are not feeling well please request they see the nurse. From the clinic we can discuss next steps on your child’s return to class or pick up from the clinic.
Tdap immunization is required for all 7th graders
Proof of this immunization on the DH 680 form can be brought to the front office, faxed (904-547-8715), or emailed to Ms. Greve even if your student is still in 6th grade. Per district policy, all 7th grade students are required to submit an updated DH 680 form to include Tdap prior to the start of 7th grade. Failure to provide updated immunization records will delay your child’s start date.
