We would like to extend our sincere appreciation to our PTO for the thoughtful gesture of providing drinks and cupcakes for our teachers today. Your continued support and generosity do not go unnoticed.




💥Calling all Ruckel Superheroes💥 We’re celebrating YOU in a big way! The PTO has an exciting week planned with great food, fun treats, and plenty of pampering for our outstanding staff!
Thank you parent volunteers for making this week a success for our SUPER Rams 🐏

May is Mental Health Awareness Month, and we are committed to supporting the well-being of our students and families. Throughout the month, Ms. Berube will be sharing a weekly newsletter with valuable information, resources, and strategies for parents to support mental health at home.

It is Teacher Appreciation Week and our teachers are THE BEST.
Ruckel Middle School is truly fortunate to have such a dedicated and passionate group of teachers who consistently go above and beyond for our students. Your commitment to high quality instruction, meaningful relationships, and a positive learning environment does not go unnoticed. Each day, you invest your time, energy, and heart into supporting our students academically and personally, helping them grow into confident and capable individuals. Thank you for your professionalism, your collaboration, and your unwavering dedication to excellence. Your impact extends far beyond the classroom, and we are deeply grateful for all that you do to make Ruckel an exceptional place for students to learn and thrive.

Color Run 2026 was an amazing success! We had 235 runners, 30 volunteers, 8 sponsors and over 300+ in attendance! We raised just shy of $6,000.00 for Ruckel Middle School 👏🏾
Thank you to our sponsors, community members, PTO volunteers, parents and staff for supporting this fun and community building event for our students!
Professional photos coming soon- please share your photos in the comments below.
We loved having Dippin Dots & Doggs Gone Wild present! Enjoyed outdoor inflatable games from Jumptastic! Played games with D1 Niceville and Mathnasium!
Thank you RAMS for a memorable night!

Our PTO has been hard at work enhancing the front entry, updating signage, and bringing a new mural to life for our campus.
A special thank you to Kat The Artist for completing another incredible mural yesterday, and there’s more to come!
We appreciate the continued support in making our campus a place our Rams are proud to call home. 🖤💛
