Uniform Exchange and Dress Code Information
RMAE Dress Code– please review along with your student.
We also run a uniform exchange program where gently used uniform items are donated and parents can arrange a time to take a look. This is a free program run via the Parent Teacher Organization (PTO).
Please contact Julia Corrin via text (571)409-4338 to arrange a time to "shop" the uniform exchange or for more information on the Uniform Exchange Program.
If you can’t find what you need in the uniform exchange or want to buy elsewhere you can find uniform items at Lands End, Target, French Toast, Old Navy, Justice, Children’s Place, and Walmart.

A message from the parent lunch committee :
Hi parents - we hope everyone had a great summer. The parent committee spent last spring researching new lunch program options that met the needs of parents (based on the survey) and made sense for the school operationally. Unfortunately, we weren't able to secure an option for the upcoming school year. The primary roadblock was the limited number of vendors that would service our mountain-area school within a reasonable budget for parents, especially with staffing shortages and food prices being what they are currently. We'll continue to pursue any new ideas that the committee or parents may have and will update parents if new opportunities for a school lunch program arise.
Just a reminder that PTO fundraisers are separate from the school lunch program discussed above and will be offered similar to last year (Jimmy John's + Dominos).

Family Summary of August 11 Board Meeting
Welcome Back Grizzlies! The August 11 Board Meeting was productive. We started the meeting by holding one of many strategic sessions in which we look to continue to do even more to help us achieve our strategic goals. Tom McMillen, our JeffCo Charter School Representative graciously provided his time during that session. We are also pleased to share that we have officially approved our 5-year charter contract with JeffCo. As always, the board meeting schedule, meeting agenda, and meeting minutes are posted on our website. We encourage families and faculty to join these meetings in the newly open Den and encourage participation during public comment. You can contact us at [email protected] if you have any questions about the board or our meetings.
Speaking of participating in Board meetings, we have one open Board position. The Board is the governing entity of RMAE, and meets at least monthly to discuss budgeting, achieving academic standards, strategic planning, and campus improvements as we continue to move the vision and mission forward. While all parents are welcome to submit their names for candidacy, the Board is particularly interested in candidates with previous involvement in RMAE committees and experience across Human Resources or fundraising/capital campaigns.
If you have interest, please submit a brief letter of intent by this Thursday, August 25th describing your background and outlining what you believe you can offer the school through Board service. The letter may be sent to Board Secretary Janelle Herrera at [email protected]. Once the letters are compiled and reviewed, candidates will join the board meeting on the evening of September 8th in which the board will appoint a candidate.
In addition, the Board has various committees you can participate which include marketing, fundraising, school accountability, or facilities. If you are interested in joining one of these committees please email Board President Scott Jones at [email protected]..
We look forward to a wonderful 2022 – 2023 school year.
