Congratulations! You made it through the first week of virtual learning for the 2020 - 2021 school year! I hope you and your child feels a little better about getting logged in to classes each day and completing the assignments. Please help your child get in the habit of checking their email regularly as it is the gateway to very important information. Remember, students should start off on the right foot by being on time for each class and practicing good habits for academic success. Start scheduling adequate time to review notes, read ahead and organize upcoming quizzes, projects and tests. Please help us by making sure your student has a quiet, distraction-free learning environment while they are in class. Try to minimize disruptions so they can focus on the teacher's instructions and activities. We appreciate your partnership as we strive to provide a premier learning experience for your child!!

Remember, there will be no school Monday, September 7th. Please enjoy the Labor Day Holiday and be safe!!

This is a gentle reminder to have your child's yearly physical updated. Be sure to ask for any immunizations that are needed (Tdap 6th/7th graders). Once completed, please make sure that the Dent Health Room as well as the Registrar has the new information. This will be an important part of your child being able to attend class.

You may fax your records to 803.699.2754 ATTN:NURSE, or scan and email it to dvilardi@richland2.org, Subject: Immunization. We greatly appreciate your prompt care and concern with this request.

Make Up textbook distribution will occur later this week. This is for students who did not pick up their textbooks last week or if you had a schedule change and need a new book. A sign up form will come out shortly.

We are also still waiting on some textbooks to be delivered from the State Department of Education. Your teachers will notify the students when they have arrived and we will schedule a pick up time for those books.
