My RMS Experience
I remember my first day of middle school like it was yesterday. I was about ten years old and very nervous. I’m not sure why though, because when entering middle school I already almost everybody in the grade. I probably thought that Ridgway was gonna be like a mini version of those high school, where there were huge bullies and people getting shoved into lockers. But it wasn’t like that all. I did have to get used to new teachers and the scheduling, but at the end of the day it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be.
Fifth grade. Ahh, yes my very first year in Ridgway Middle School. I don’t remember too much from this grade, but I can't tell you that I still really enjoyed. I only had two teachers in this grade and they …show more content…
No longer the babies of Ridgway Middle School. This year was a lot easier for me because I was now used to the new environment and scheduling. I had a couple more teachers during the school year and they were Mr.Spezzano, Mrs.Loringer, Mrs.Fontana, and I even had Mrs.Ramm again for she moved up from a fifth grade social studies teacher to a sixth grade social studies teacher. Mr.Spezzano was one of my favorites out of this group because he was so laid back, fun, and barely gave us any homework! Anyways, I remember a lot more from this grade than fifth grade and let me tell you, these years were a lot more eventful. During sixth grade, I had to great opportunity to go to one of my soon to be favorite field trips; Camp Ockanickon. It was a three day two night trip which consisted of a numerous of activities to choose from including fishing and canoeing. I made so many great memories from this trip, and I would have to say that this was my all time favorite trip. Another event that happened in sixth grade was our Egyptian project in Mrs. Fontana’s class. We were learning about ancient Egypt and the mummification process which resulted in us recreating the steps for our fellow classmates. I remember we had to choose a partner, select a step in the process, and study it. We then got a life-size dummy which our class “mummified it”. This project was one of my favorite projects in Ridgway. As you can obviously tell, sixth may have been my most eventful year in Ridgway Middle
