Rodgers Middle Magnet School

Students and staff started the day with a hello. We recognize that one kind word can change someone's day. Families were greeted in the carline to music and celebration. Festivities continue throughout the week.

It's National Arts in Education Week! 🎨🎭 HCPS celebrates the importance of arts education, which fosters creativity, self-expression, and critical thinking across our district. Whether through painting, music, dance, or theater, the arts enrich student learning.

During National Latin & Hispanic Heritage Month, our school district celebrates the rich cultures, traditions, and achievements of Hispanic and Latino communities. 🇲🇽🇨🇺🇸🇻

CALLING ALL STUDENT ARTISTS! 🖍️ It’s time to show off your creativity with our Every Day Matters Poster Contest. In partnership with United Way Suncoast, we’re challenging students to show why coming to school every day makes a difference. Use a powerful slogan, meaningful artwork, or both to share your unique perspective on what motivates you to show up.

The contest will run through Friday, October 10. Posters must be submitted through your art teacher and sent via school mail to our K-12 Arts Supervisor, Laura Hobby.

Congratulations to our Excellence in Education Awards Winners!
