This school year is flying! We are now well into the 2nd nine-weeks! Our Super Fun(d) Run was a huge success! I would personally like to thank our PTO president, Kristen Milenkovitch, and all of our parent volunteers that made this event possible. Further, I would like to thank all of the parents and friends of our Richland Champions that donated to this cause. With the funds we raised we will be purchasing educational programs such as Ticket-to-Read and V-Math Live, and we will also purchase a SMART Table that students will be able to utilize. Lastly, we will purchase additional playground equipment! All of these items were recommended needs as a part of our Strategic Plan. We have heard your requests and have responded with the addition of a Google calendar to our website! It is located under the events page. You can synchronize events that are planned at our school to your Smartphone. Unfortunately, it’s that time of the year when students are getting sick and some have shown symptoms of the flu virus, which include fever, vomiting, headache, and fatigue. We are taking steps to help decrease the spread of flu. Parents of any student showing flu-like symptoms will be contacted to retrieve their child from school. Children showing any flu-like symptom should not be sent to school and should remain home at least 24 hours after a fever is gone without the use of fever-reducing medication. Congratulations to our Teacher of the Year! Mrs. Brandy Wynn! Thank you for all that you do to make Richland Elementary special. You are a true Champion!
