PAST RMBA HIGHLIGHTS 
COMMUNITY STRONG
Our students, staff and families continue to assist relief efforts in countless ways following the recent flooding. Kol Hakavod to everyone who has donated toys and gift cards to our Lower School Student Council Toy Drive, food to our students and community at large, their precious time to help make lunches for our students and meals for our UOS community  support our community in need.  THANK YOU! 





TZEDAKAH SURPRISE 
Students at RMBA have collected Tdedakah throughout the year totally $1,084.00. The decision as to where it should go was an easy one and students proudly donated this collection to a representative from UOSGMS who will use this money to purchase and replace furniture, equipment, games and manipulatives that was destroyed in the flooding. What a mitzvah! 


SPLASH! 

There was water, shaving cream, breakfast, bubbles and more for our early Childhood students to enjoy at the annual Splash Day event, the final end of year activity that our incredible RMBA PTO team oversees. 


WHAT'S FOR DINNER?
The 8th grade students and their families gathered together for their annual dinner at RMBA. This was a special event that included dinner, a moving slide show and student reflections as our 8th graders graduate from Middle School and embark on a new experience as High Schoolers next school year. 


ISRAEL DAY PARADE
Some of our High School students led by our Shlichim and Bnot Sheirut joined 30,000 other individuals from around the country for a Parade to celebrate Israel in New York City down 5th Avenue. 


BEREN'S GONE BOWLING
Our elememtary school students were bowled over by the fun they had at Palace Bowling Lanes! This was their final field trip that was all about making memories together as they close out the 2014/15 school year. 


BALLET BEAUTIES
Our Prima ballerinas put on a beautiful show for their family and friends for the end of semester ballet recital. 


KINDERGARTEN GRADS
The future class of 2027 is ready to take on first grade and they marked this auspicious milestone of completing Kindergarten with an incredible ceremony with cap, gown, family and friends to support their continuous growth and development.
