Community Nights are a welcoming family engagement event at the Reynolds Middle School campus that includes a free, catered meal for families and students, time for relationship building between school staff and families, academic tutoring support and connections to community resources.
These family events are more important than ever for our students and families as we recover from Hurricane Helene.
Community Nights are open to any family in the Reynolds community, whether they have a child attending the school or not.

Volunteers are asked to arrive at 4:45 pm and leave at 6:45 pm to assist with setting up and breaking down the event.
