  2. Richard Montgomery High SchoolTop 5 Accomplishments 1st place of Lead By Example Contest This is a year-long, comprehensive contest that shows our school's energy conservation, waste reduction, and sustainability efforts. All 63 secondary schools in MCPS were eligible, and RMHS won 1st Place!

  3. Richard Montgomery High SchoolTop 5 Accomplishments Featured on MCPSSuperTV show RMHS was featured on the MCPS Superintendent's TV show. This TV show showed how "going green" is not just a catch phrase, but a lifestyle amongst the staff and students at RMHS.

  4. Richard Montgomery High SchoolTop 5 Accomplishments Butterfly/Rain Garden Students and staff created a rain/butterfly garden. The garden supports the storm water management system of the county and provides a place for wildlife.

  5. Richard Montgomery High SchoolTop 5 Accomplishments Paperless Communication We use our school website to communicate with our staff, students, and parents. We have put in place paperless communication for our August start of school information which saves us from sending our 2200 packets that are 20 or more pages each. This saves paper as well as reducing the need to process and transport paper through the mail system. We also use the school website to conduct a paperless registration system. Instead of printing thousands of copies of our course lists and program of studies materials we post everything on the counseling webpage for students to reference.

  6. Richard Montgomery High SchoolTop 5 Accomplishments Our Building Services manager provided training to a team of building services workers including 8 staff members from our school. Our entire administrative and school leadership team attended the SERT Leader Success Training conducted by Hillary Kirchman, SERT Program Manager and DJ Connelly, SERT Facilitator. Our 10 member SERT/Green Committee communicated with Mary Travaglini, Planning Specialist, Watershed Management Division, Department of Environmental Protection in the development of our rain/butterfly garden. Professional Development All RMHS staff have been informed about the application and steps needed to receive this prestigious award. We believe it is both important to support our own professional development and learning but we also believe we need to share our knowledge with others so that they can make environmentally friendly decisions
