Friday Flyer
Week 30
Week 30 Notes
This week, we all received the unfortunate news that we will not be reopening Richfield Middle School for the remainder of this school year. It's incredibly sad news, but now is a time for us all to do our part to make sure we're safe and healthy. In the next days and weeks, please keep a close eye on your email and the Friday Flyer. As an administrative team, we are working to make sure that we have a cohesive plan now that we have a definite answer on the future of this school year.
Thank you for all that you are doing to support your children. I understand the stress that virtual learning places on your family and applaud you all for the effort you are putting in. We will get through this stronger than ever.
Question of the Week
This week, please make sure to check in on the mental health of your child. Friendships and social interaction are such a crucial part of your child's middle school life. While the school work portion may be something they aren't sad to see go, your child is certainly missing his or her friends. This week, I encourage you to ask "Who are you missing the most from school?" or "Who have you reached out to talk to lately?" Hopefully, you get to know who your child is close with and have a conversation about managing the missing relationships in their lives.
Thanks,
Jeff Carron

Boby Frings Scholarship
Boby Frings was a dedicated, loyal, caring teacher at Richfield School for nearly 20 years. Boby’s love of teaching and learning was the heartbeat of her educational philosophy. She held herself to high standards in the classroom and expected her students to do the same-- always guiding them to their fullest potential as curious learners and good humans.
Boby’s love of travel found its way into the lessons she planned for her English classes. Creativity and adventure were always part of her plans for motivating students. As a colleague, she was a supportive encourager and a staunch friend. She loved education and lived it every day, constantly challenging herself and others in a quest to keep learning. Her keen sense of humor delighted those in her presence.
The family of Boby Frings has honored her legacy and memory as a teacher through the establishment of the Boby Frings Memorial Scholarship Fund. The scholarship is awarded annually to an 8th grade graduate of the Holy Hill Area School District. The recipient of the $1,500 Boby Frings Memorial Scholarship will be announced at the 8th Grade Commencement ceremony. (Receipt of actual scholarship dollars are sent directly to the college or institution bursar in the name of the recipient upon completion of high school.)
