News From Roger: 2022-23 Plan for Realms Middle School Joining the High School<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Dear Parents,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some of you may have heard “rumors and rumblings” recently about the idea that Realms Middle School and Realms High School may be “co-locating” sometime soon and I wanted to set the record straight and also invite you to some opportunities to ask questions and share your feedback!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

First off, it is true! Realms Middle School WILL<\/em> indeed be moving to the Brinson Blvd campus that currently houses Realms High School, and the move will happen this summer in advance of the 2022-23 school year! This is the culmination of many years of planning and we are super excited about all the potential that this move holds for us as a middle school AND as a part of the larger Realms Schools 6-12!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We are currently working closely with our Architect and District Design team as we move through the design, permitting and bidding process in advance of building new classrooms, offices and other learning spaces at Brinson that will house our middle school program.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You probably have a few (or a few hundred?!) questions, and I’d love to provide some time to share more details about the transition and to answer your questions! I will share details about the “why” of this move, the interior design, thoughts about what kind of connection there will (and won’t) be between the MS and HS, the construction of a ball\/play field at Brinson, the sibling preference-admission policy, and much more!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mark your calendars for Thursday January 1th3 at 5:30PM ON WEBEX<\/a><\/em> <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the meantime, if you have specific questions you’d like answered or topics you’d like to hear about, please share them here<\/a>!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Upcoming Dates<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
