Richland Elementary
Richland Elementary is proud to be an A-rated school!
Our success is possible because of our hard-working and
dedicated staff and the wonderful students and families we
serve. While our primary goal is to provide our students with
a quality education, we strive to enrich their lives in a
multitude of ways.
At RES, we are preparing our students to be leaders in
our school community and beyond. Each month one student
from every class is chosen to be Leader of the Month. These
students are recognized and celebrated monthly at the
Leaders of the Month breakfast.
During Start with Hello week, students dressed up
according to a daily theme and were encouraged to be kind
to others and make new friends. Students are also able to
show their leadership skills through membership in our
Kindness Club or Junior Tech Team.
Involving our families and community is extremely
important to Richland Elementary. Several events took place
during the first semester. We were excited to honor many of
our students’ family heritage by celebrating Hispanic Heritage
Month. Several students dressed in traditional Hispanic garb
while their parents served up delicious culinary items
representing their culture.
We held our annual book fair which featured a circusthemed
parent night. Students and their families were able
to shop the book fair and then enjoy dinner from a food truck.
Veterans Day offered an opportunity to recognize parents
and grandparents who served in the military. Veterans were
treated to breakfast and a musical performance by a select
group of RES students. This was a moving event for veterans
and civilians alike.
Teachers worked hard to prepare and present a plethora
of helpful information for our Family Literacy Night. Parents
left with a variety of strategies as well as activities to help
their children at home.
We are looking forward to what the new year brings!
