No Treasurer = No PTSA. That's right everyone, without a PTSA Treasurer next year, there can be no PTSA. Washington State requires all registered organizations to have a President, Secretary, and Treasurer. The RMS PTSA is still in need of a nominee for Treasurer for the 2022-2023 school year. Save the PTSA by recommending yourself or someone else for the role of Treasurer! Remember...No previous experience necessary!• Training can be provided ASAP
Existing budget is easy to understand!
• The PTSA budget has been thoroughly vetted and well organized by the current Treasurer and Budget Committee
You will become a hero to all RMS families!• Save the PTSA and all its programs for the next year!
As Treasurer, you give input on how PTSA funds are allocated and used. You will be writing checks, making budgetary recommendations and using our accounting software to provide monthly budget reports. As Treasurer, you make a big impact at RMS!Save programs like Reflections, Spelling Bee, Science Team, Math Club, Staff Grants and Staff Appreciation, and so many more that help and shape our students' school experience! Help keep our PTSA organization running as we bring families, students, staff and Redmond community closer together!

Hello Grizzlies! This year, Redmond Middle School Leadership II Class will be selling spirit wear. You might have seen the lopsided posters hanging around our school. If you read them, you would know we were selling spirit wear. If you didn't, now you do. The sale will begin on March 21 and end on April 3. Buying spirit wear is a great way to support our school and celebrate this crazy year, and we hope you make our school better by buying some. This is a fundraiser, so all of the money collected will go to making our school the best it can be. There are multiple design and color choices, available in short sleeve ($20), long sleeve ($25) or hoodie ($35). You can scan the QR code on the posters around the school to look at the spirit wear or click on this link: https://customink.com/fundraising/rms-spirit-wear-2022. So, make sure to buy your favorite spirit wear before the sale ends on April 3! Thank you, Leadership II
