Parents and Guardians,
\r\nIt is already the 4th week of school! I hope everyone is enjoying the 3-day weekend! Please remember that we will not have school tomorrow in honor of Labor Day. Progress Reports for the 1st grading quarter are scheduled for September 15th.\r\n
\r\nRJHS Fall Picture Day is Monday, September 20th. Students will take home information about how to order pictures this week. Parents/Guardians, please be looking for this information. All students and staff will have pictures made on the 20th even if they don't want to order pictures. The pictures will appear in the yearbook. If you have any questions, please email marci.burnett@rsdk12.net.
\r\nThe PTO (Parent Teacher Organization) is open to all parents/guardians. They meet at noon on the first Monday of each month. Right now these meetings are being held via zoom. The next meeting is Monday, October 4th. Please email PTO President Gina Skelton at gskelton@skeltonlaw.legal or PTO Secretary Tonia Outz at tsouzts@hotmail.com if you would like to get a zoom invite to the meeting. If you have not already, consider becoming a PTO member. The membership form was a part of the forms packet from the beginning of the year.\r\n
\r\n**The main way that parents can stay involved in their child's education is to stay informed about their grades! HAC ("Home Access Center" or "eSchool") will continue to be our primary way to communicate with parents and students regarding grades. NEW: Parents can expect updated grades in each class on HAC each Wednesday! (Checking your child's Google Classroom summary will typically not give you an accurate portrayal of your child's current progress in each class.) You should have received log in information in the mail this past week so that you can set up your account, allowing you to access your child's grades. If you, as a parent, did not receive this information or have questions about getting set up in the system, please direct any questions you may have about logging into the system to Ms. Hamilton by emailing nichole.hamilton@rsdk12.net. \r\n
\r\n**RSD has selected GoGuardian services to help our students stay safer and more scholarly online. RJHS teachers work with students during class time to help teach them digital responsibility and safety. RSD expects students to use their school-managed Google accounts and school-managed devices for educational purposes within the boundaries of our district. When a student is off campus, parents share the responsibility for supervising internet access and usage. We encourage parents/guardians to discuss rules for appropriate internet usage with your child(ren), and reinforce lessons of digital citizenship and safety with him or her. IMPORTANT: parents logging in to GoGuardian must use the email address that they provided to the school. Here are some links you can use to help you take advantage of the features GoGuardian has:\r\n
