Field Day Volunteers
We appreciate all of the parents who have signed up to volunteer at Field Days and look forward to a very fun time! If you have not previously completed the
Volunteer Information & Liability Form, please be prepared to complete it that morning, or better yet, turn it in to the school office prior to Field Day. In addition, volunteers should have their driver’s license ready to be scanned if it has not been previously scanned at the school.

Teacher Appreciation Week
Thank you to everyone who donated or volunteered to share the love and appreciation for our amazing Davis Richmond staff and teachers!
The Chicks Are Here!
Our kindergarten classes are so excited to welcome 90 chicks into the world. The students have learned all about the development of chicks in the egg, witnessed their hatching, and held these adorable little chicks. It is definitely spring at Davis.
Who Is Your Mother?
For Mother's Day our Davis staff shared pictures of their mothers and displayed them in the LRC. The students were excited to match the mothers pictures with their teachers. One little first grader asked, “You have a mommy?” Yes, we do!

May is Kindness Month and to celebrate, the students of Richmond Intermediate will be participating in two school-wide activities.
“Kindness is Free! Sprinkle that Stuff Everywhere!” Throughout the month, students will be encouraged to complete random acts of kindness. After completing their act, students will be given a square to add to our “Sprinkle Kindness” wall in the front foyer. We will also be encouraging students to celebrate when they see others showing kindness! Watch social media to see pictures of our kindness wall as it grows throughout the final month of the school year.
May 9: Kindness Rocks - During the week of May 9th all students will be decorating a kindness rock to spread positivity. Students will be encouraged to place their rock somewhere either on school grounds, at their home, or in their neighborhood, etc. This spring and summer, be on the lookout for Richmond Kindness Rocks in the community.
Join Band in 2022-2023!
As a reminder, third graders can join orchestra and 5th graders can join band. Yes, you can join both if interested in band and orchestra. Have questions about our programs?
Contact Jen Lydisgen - jennifer.lydigsen@d303.org for band or visit the band website which has information about instruments, rental prices, band lessons, etc.
