RDES Update

Achieving Together ... ONE Family

A Message from Mrs. Hyatt

Parents and family members,


Monday we will be celebrating our custodians. They go the extra mile to assure our classes, cafeteria, hallways and all other areas of the school are clean and sanitized. We appreciate them and are proud they are a part of the Richmond Drive family!


Attendance (late arrival, absence, and late pick up) does count this year. School starts promptly at 7:45. Students should be in their classrooms at 7:45. Please arrive no later than 7:40 to give your student time to get to class before the tardy bell.


Please help you child remember to bring their charged computer to school everyday.


Our entire staff is so appreciative of your support. October is the month for parent / teacher conferences. Teachers will be contacting you to set up a time to zoom so they can share about your child's growth and you can ask questions.


Be sure to follow us on:

With much appreciation,
