As and ex-student, I loved this school, I still talk about going to this school when I a kid. I remember the Spanish and music class, having the same teacher every year was great. Mr. Christopher was a truly amazing teacher. I loved going to the college for swimming lessons and gym class, and the theater for plays, short walk to the park around the corner or sunny days was great. I loved everything about this school; I still remember some of the creative ways that I learned math, and memorization. As a kid I felt lucky to go to the "cool school", as an adult I feel privileged. An amazing opportunity that I wish I had back and I hope to have my children experience! There is so much more I could say, but I am just glad I was able to experience this school and it was a major impact on my life. Also I think when I attended this school it was the Multicultural Arts Magnet School.

If you are looking for a school that still grasps the concept that children are individuals, not machines... a place that embraces all children and families regardless of their quirks and differences... and a place that truly exemplifies the adage that education is not merely preparation for life, but life itself, then the Regional Multicultural Magnet School is for you. We have been blown away by the progress of both our children (one of whom requires SPED services) and the opportunities, exposure and experiences provided are unparalleled. RMMS is a truly special place. I feel that everyday I am able to send my children there, it is like giving them a gift. They are so much happier and there is a joy to their school experiences and a wonderful sense of curiosity that has been expertly nurtured. The faculty and staff are true professionals, and the positive, inclusive, proactive energy truly comes from 'the top down,' with an excellent administration and support staff members. RMMS is a true asset to the Connecticut Public School System, and an example of what we're doing RIGHT.
