For many years, one of the special traditions of 8th Grade Art at Reagan Middle School was painting a ceiling tile. Some students created their own masterpieces, while others teamed up with a friend or small group to create something together. ❤️
Over the years, these tiles have become a colorful collection of RMS memories, creativity, friendships, and school history. Take a look at some of the amazing examples we’ve found! 👀🎨
Unfortunately, due to new fire code regulations, ceiling tiles can no longer be painted and displayed in our building. But we don’t want these pieces of RMS history to simply disappear!
✨ If you are a former 8th grade student who painted a ceiling tile, we would LOVE for you to come pick it up! ✨
Come walk through the halls of RMS, find your masterpiece, and take home a little piece of your middle school memories. 💜
📅 Ceiling Tile Pick-Up Dates:
🗓️ Wednesday, October 7
⏰ 4:00–7:00 PM
🗓️ Thursday, October 8
⏰ 12:30 - 3:30 PM
🗓️ Friday, October 9
⏰ 8:00 – 11:00 AM
Whether you painted a tile by yourself, with your best friend, or as part of a group, your artwork helped make RMS what it was. We hope you’ll come back, find it, and take it home! 🥰
💜 Come find your tile. Take home your memories. 🤍
*** DIXON ATHLETICS REMINDER***
We love seeing our RMS & DHS students and families supporting our athletes! 💜 Just a couple of friendly reminders to help our athletic events run smoothly:
School Attendance:
Students must be present at school for at least 3½ hours on the day of an athletic event in order to participate in a game or practice. This same expectation applies to students who wish to attend and watch an athletic event at RMS or DHS. If you are absent from school on the day of the event, you cannot attend.
Younger Siblings:
If families are bringing siblings or other children to an event, please remember that you are responsible for supervising them. Children should remain seated with you in the bleachers or stay within your line of sight throughout the event.
Our administration and staff are there to support our teams, our players, and our families—and to help things run smoothly. We appreciate everyone doing their part to make Dixon athletic events safe, positive, and enjoyable for all!
Thank you for your support of Dixon Athletics!
