We hope everyone has had a great break and an even better start to the new year. We are writing to make you aware of our hire at the band director position. We are very excited to announce that Mrs. Emilia Tenore will be taking on the position as we return from the break. Mrs. Tenore is bringing many years of large band program director experience. Her vision for the program is centered on the students. She is ready to get started next week on developing all of our students’ musical abilities, maintaining and improving our already prestigious culture of high expectations, musicianship, and family oriented environment, and also growing the number of students in our band program back to numbers we have had in the past.
We will be hosting two “Meet Mrs. Tenore” events. Both events will start at 5:30 PM and will be hosted in the Ruckel band room. These events will be held on Thursday, January 4th and Monday, January 8th.
We are hopeful and looking forward to seeing all parents and students at one the two events!
Thank you, Happy New Year, and as always Go Rams!


Congratulations to Ruckel's star teachers of the week.
