The Rumney Marsh Academy (RMA) participated in a new day named by Governor Deval Patrick to promote Anti-Bullying Awareness.
Governor Deval Patrick, in order for compliance with the Patrick-Murray administration, named the fourth Wednesday in January “No Name Calling Day” when he signed a piece of anti-bullying legislation in May of 2010. This day was created to promote tolerance for differences, whether they are racial, cultural, etc.

Cindy Peraza, eighth grader, gets out from an early release day and goes right home. “It’s here! It’s here!” She sits down at her computer desk, logs onto Apple.com/trailers, and clicks on “The Hunger Games.” She sits in awe as Gale sweeps Prim into his arms as Katniss is reaped, Peeta gets chosen as tribute, and Katniss twirls in a dazzling red gown.

By Maria Vargas and Natalia Muniz
Students at the Rumney Marsh Academy who need disciplinary action are often given consequences such as TAPP (temporary alternative placement program), suspension and administrative sessions. However, some of the students that are given these consequences say that it doesn’t help them improve their behavior, but instead they actually enjoy it.
