Tuesday, July 15, 2025 is our next food pick-up at the Ridgeview Campus. The parent/guardian food pick up is from 10:00 AM to 1:00 PM. We have planned for more meals this time, but once all meals have been distributed the site will close. If a student is not enrolled in Dickenson County Public Schools, a form will need to be filled out on site. Students must be 18 years or younger.

Mark your calendars to join us for our first Back to School Bash!!!

August 1, 2025 from 3 PM to 7 PM at Ridgeview Campus!

Dickenson County Public Schools first summer food distribution will be on Monday, July 7th between 10:00 AM and 1:00 PM. The meal packs will consist of 8 breakfast and 8 lunches with a gallon of milk.

Please look for signs and the tent when you enter the Ridgeview Campus.

This is for any child ages 3-18 regardless if they are enrolled in DCPS schools or not. If a child is not enrolled, there will be a form that will need to be filled out which includes the child's name and name of adult picking up the meals.

First Come, first Served-We will give out until we run out!

Other distribution days will be July 15th and July 22nd.

This is a reminder that any RMS student who was issued a chromebook, case, and charger, to use at home during Virtual Learning days, must return those to the school as soon as possible to avoid fees for missing or lost equipment.
