News and Notes
Springtime at RHHS is buzzing...…From student athletes entering post-season play, fine arts hosting their final concerts or just the anticipation of the upcoming assessments and the focus on doing the very best! There is no loss of energy in the air and opportunity to remain engaged until the very end!
We hope that this newsletter continues to be a great source of information for you and that it is just in time information that allows you to engage and understand what's going on! With the school year quickly coming to an end, I strongly urge you to maintain communication with your child and ensure that they are putting their best foot forward and finishing what we started in August. As always, if you need PowerSchool assistance - don't hesitate to reach out to our registrars directly: kwhitley@bryan.k12.ga.us or sreed@bryan.k12.ga.us, both will be of great resource for the SIS needs.
If there is information you need pertaining to RHHS that you cannot find here, please use our school website of reference the Richmond Hill High School Academic Guide which contains a host of information and live links to keep you in the know.
Stay safe, enjoy each other and rest up for Monday!

Attention 10th Grade Parents/Guardians
Is your teen 16 years old or turning 16 before August 2nd 2023? If so, they will need proof of a booster to the meningococcal vaccination (MCV4) before being allowed to attend school in August.
If your teen is already 16 years old, it is strongly recommended that you contact your healthcare provider or the Bryan County Health Department before the summer rush.
This MCV4 booster is only given at the age of 16 or after. If your teen has a summer birthday, please make arrangements to ensure that they are ready to start school on August 2nd.
Meningococcal disease is a serious bacterial illness that affects the brain and causes shock, coma and death within hours of the first symptoms. Georgia law requires students be vaccinated against this disease.
Please submit a Certificate of Immunization (Georgia Department of Public Health Form 3231) to the school clinic prior to August 2nd.
