Rachel’s Challenge
In science, the eye of the storm is used to signify the centermost (most awesome) part of a tornado or hurricane. At SRRMS, schoolwork is sometimes thought of as a storm of papers and hard work.
Through that storm, students create and do awesome work. Therefore, our Eye of the Storm is a showcase
of not just success, but the centermost accomplishments of our students.
