Richard F. Bernotas Middle School

Richard F. Bernotas Middle School is a middle school in Crystal Lake, Illinois. Its first name was North Junior High, but recently, it was dedicated to Richard F. Bernotas. Lori Sorensen is currently the principal of the school, with Charmian Fletcher and Scott Meyer as assistant principals. A recent addition to the school expanded it and added a large multipurpose room which is mainly used as a cafeteria. Bernotas Middle School has a television news show that informs all students about upcoming events and other announcements every morning. The news anchors are all students, but teachers sometimes speak as well. There are about 1000 students in it. Bernotas's sports teams go under the "Bernotas Vikings". Their mascot is Thor, represented by a viking. The school colors are blue and gold. Unlike the three middle schools in the district, RFB has its own unique school song, and not a rewrite of lyrics. It also has the largest Asian/Pacific Islander group in the 3 middle schools at 4% of all students.
