This November, Rembrandt Secondary students are coming together to make a difference in our community through our schoolwide Canned Food Drive!
Each homeroom class will collect canned and non-perishable food items from November 10–20.
How Families Can Help
Send canned or non-perishable items with your child to turn in to their homeroom teacher.
Items may include:
-Canned vegetables, fruits, soups, or beans
-Pasta, rice, oatmeal, or cereal
-Peanut butter, jelly, and snack bars
-Canned or powdered milk, juice boxes, and water bottles
Together, we can show what it means to be Respectful, Responsible, and Caring Spartans!
Thank you for helping our students give back. Every can makes a difference!
Good evening, parents! Please note that there will be no ACE program tomorrow due to our Turkey Trot event. All students must be picked up by 4:15 p.m. Thank you for your cooperation!

Today we proudly celebrated our October Heart of Gold Spartan Spotlight Awards at Rembrandt Secondary! 🌟
The Spartan Spotlight was created to recognize students who not only excel academically, but who also lead with kindness and compassion, the true marks of a Spartan. 💙
This month’s Heart of Gold Award honors students who show Social Awareness by treating others with respect and making our school a safe and welcoming place for everyone. These students stand up for others, offer a helping hand, and make sure everyone feels seen and valued.
Congratulations to our 5th–12th grade Spartans who were recognized today! You are the heart of our campus and a shining example of what it means to lead with love and respect. 💛
Together, we continue to build a campus where respect, responsibility, and safety are more than words, they’re the Spartan Way.
