It's a Wrap!
The official end of the 2021-22 school year may be here, but the work goes on! Many might imagine quiet halls and empty parking lots during the summer months, but in actuality the school will hum with activity all in preparation for the upcoming school year!
Summer school begins Monday and for four weeks we will continue to educate Richards students. There will be summer fun activities, but learning will be our priority!
The administration, counselors, custodians, and office staff will be completing orders and throughout the summer will be receiving shipments of resources, equipment, & supplies needed for the upcoming school year.
The maintenance staff will be working hard making repairs, painting, landscaping, and doing whatever needs to be done to make the school safe, clean and ready for action when school starts in August.
Construction has begun on a new addition to the school! A new cafeteria is being built that is 50% larger than our current one. This will allow students to have more space to spread out, all with safety in mind. Adams Construction is working hard with the hope that the project will be completed by the beginning of the 2022-23 school year. We are fortunate and proud that this expansion will require no increase in the district tax rate. We continue to operate with the lowest tax rate in the state at $2.75!
We hope everyone has a great summer & we look forward to seeing you back at Richards in August!
