During the month of October, students have been learning about the importance of kindness, acceptance, and inclusion during counseling lessons with Ms. Shively. Today, Roadrunners wore orange in celebration of Unity Day, the flagship event for National Bullying Prevention Month.
On Thursday, October 26th, the GCPS community encourages everyone to wear ORANGE in celebration of UNITY DAY. Let's unite for kindness, acceptance, and inclusion and send a visible message that no child should ever experience bullying. #weRrandolph

Roadrunner Spotlight:
Ms. Coward (Special Education)
I am excited to be at Randolph full time this year! This is my 15th year teaching and 3rd at Randolph. I have enjoyed working in almost every grade level and helping students find their successes and build their confidence! When not teaching I am at sports for my daughter or son, traveling, or spending time with friends and family. Go RES!
