Bulldog Block/Power Hour
At RCHS we are making a schedule adjustment to our lunch and tutorial/club time in the middle of the school day. Freshman and sophomore students will be scheduled in Bulldog Block for thirty minutes and will have a designated lunch during A or B Block. Bulldog Block allows 9th and 10th graders the opportunity to focus on their academics, tutorials, accelerated instruction and to learn the skill of scheduling their time for clubs and academics. .
Juniors and Seniors will continue to have the full hour for Power Hour which incorporates their lunch, tutorials, clubs and more. Seniors only have the opportunity to sign up for off campus lunch during the Power Hour time with parent and administrative approval through forms in Family Access. We will review this information the first day of school with all students in class meetings.
Cell Phones-Personal Device Usage during the School Day
Please note: Page 60 of the Student Handbook
Instructional Use of Personal Telecommunications and Other Electronic Devices
Students must obtain prior approval to use personal telecommunications or other personal
electronic devices for instructional purposes while on campus.
Students must also sign a user agreement that contains applicable rules for use (separate from this handbook).All personal devices must be turned off during the instructional day when not in use for approved instructional purposes. Violations of the user agreement may result in withdrawal of privileges and other disciplinary action.
This is how RCHS will allow personal device usage during the instructional day at RCHS:
Cell phones may be used in hallway during passing periods and scheduled lunch time..
Upon entering the classroom, all cell phones and listening devices must be turned off and placed inside backpacks or designated area..
During scheduled class period, all cell phones and listening devices must be turned off and placed inside backpacks.
If out, cell phones and electronic listening devices will be picked up and turned into the office.
***Parents must pick up the electronics.***
STUDENT SCHEDULES
Student schedules will be released electronically through Qmaltive Family Access, August 15th at 12pm. Students may view their schedule at this time. Students will be required to view new schedule on the first day of school through family access. The reason for the new schedule is due to possible changes from the balancing of classes. If there is a problem with your schedule please contact your House Counselor, thank you for your patience as counselors will review all emails in the order they are received.
