Dear Richland Families,


Welcome to the month of May! I hope you've made the best of this rainy weekend. What an exciting week we had! We had nearly 200 guests in attendance Thursday night for our Knowledge Fair and Leadership Night. I am incredibly proud of the way student and staff leaders came together for such an amazing night. See many highlights below.


Thank you to those families who have already taken our MRA survey. If you haven't had the chance, we would love to hear your thoughts on our Leader in Me framework so we may continue to grow. The survey link is below.


We are Richland proud of our April Student Leaders of the Month and the newest inductees to the First in Math 10,000 Sticker Club and Richie's 20,000 Sticker Club!


Enjoy this first week of May, and be sure to mark your calendars for May and June school events noted at the end of this newsletter!
