P.B. Ritch Middle School

Congratulations to our Raven Award recipients! ❤️💙

The Raven Award is the highest honor a student can earn at P.B. Ritch Middle School, and these students truly represent the very best of what it means to be a Raven. Selected by their teachers, each recipient has consistently demonstrated excellence both inside and outside of the classroom.

These students exemplify our Raven Code by being:
❤️ Respectful
💙 Responsible
❤️ Relatable
💙 Resourceful

We are so proud of the leadership, character, and dedication they show each day. Congratulations to these outstanding Ravens for setting the example and making our school community stronger!

Today, our halls were filled with memories, smiles, and a few happy tears as we celebrated the 8th Grade Walk at P.B. Ritch Middle School. 💚🖤

It feels like just yesterday these students were learning their way around middle school, and now they are preparing to take their next big step into high school. We are so proud of the growth, resilience, leadership, and memories this class has brought to Ritch.

To our 8th graders — thank you for leaving your mark on our school. Continue to be respectful, resourceful, relatable, and responsible wherever life takes you. High school is lucky to have you!

Once a Raven, always a Raven. 🐦‍⬛
Good luck, Class of 2030! 🎓

Today, the halls of P.B. Ritch Middle School were filled with pride, memories, and excitement as we welcomed back our graduating seniors for the Senior Walk! 🎓💚

Seeing these former Ravens walk the halls once again was a powerful reminder of how much they have grown since their middle school days. From classrooms filled with learning and laughter to the next chapter waiting ahead, we could not be more proud of the young adults they have become.

To our seniors — thank you for inspiring our current students and showing them what is possible through hard work, perseverance, and Raven pride. No matter where life takes you next, you will always have a home here at Ritch.

Once a Raven, always a Raven. 🖤💚
