Riverbend Roundup
Nov. 1st, 2021
November News
As mentioned in our last newsletter, we are looking at some small schedule changes that will go into effect at the start of the new trimester. Our Tribe time will be moving to 3rd period. This move will allow us to have full 30 minute periods of Social-Emotional Learning time and academic intervention time. We will also be adding a 3rd lunch shift to reduce the crowding issues in our cafeteria. These changes will not affect instructional time in our other class periods. Students will still have 70 minute class periods. Please see the picture below for a breakdown of the new schedule.
* Specific details about lunch shifts will be shared with students once schedules have been finalized by our counselor.
