Richards Middle School

🎓💙 One last walk through the halls as Richards Middle School Titans.

Today, our 8th graders took their final walk around the building — celebrating memories, friendships, growth, and all the moments that brought them to this milestone. We are so proud of the amazing young leaders they have become and can’t wait to see all they accomplish in high school and beyond.

Once a Titan, always a Titan! 💚💙

Please help us congratulate our head custodian, Dragana Sejdic, on receiving her 17th consecutive Head Custodian Award from GCPS! 🎉👏

She was recognized this week for her continued dedication, hard work, and commitment to keeping our school clean, safe, and welcoming for students and staff each day.

Thank you, Dragana, for all you do for our Titan community — we appreciate you! 💙💚

The RMS 6th Grade Orchestra had an unforgettable experience at the Woodruff Arts Center! Students had the opportunity to hear incredible chamber music performed by members of the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra and learn firsthand about life as a professional musician.

This inspiring trip gave our young musicians a deeper appreciation for the art of performance and what it takes to pursue a career in music. We’re so proud of our students for representing RMS so well! 🎻✨
