When buying your daily bread from COBS Breads please let them know you are a supporter from Royal Oak Middle School.  It is that simple.

When you buy your plants/tools/supplies for the garden at Cannor Nursery make sure you ask for a PAC RECEIPT and they will give you a special till tape to bring to school with you.

Thank you to everyone who used the Thrifty Smile Card.  We have managed to raise $2,500 which unfortunately is our threshold for this year.  The PE Department have used this amount to purchase sports equipment for ROMS. We will be applying to Thrifty to see if we can do this all again!! Thank you everyone!!!
