Many Thanks to the anonymous parent who brought 2 generous gift certificates for staff faculty meeting drawings!

Thank you and YUM to Russo’s New York Italian Kitchen for bringing the largest and most delicious pizza to our staff last week!  Be sure to visit this new neighborhood restaurant on the southeast corner of Campbell and Central Expressway.

Code of Conduct Acknowledgement Forms – Everyone received a RISD Student Code of Conduct Book recently.  If you have another acknowledgement form in your Tuesday envelope, it means we still needs yours back.  Please complete it and return it to school as soon as possible.

Fever-Free for 24 hours –

Please remember that when they’ve been sick, students need to stay home until they have had no fever for 24 hours, without medication!  Thank you for helping us keep our students healthy!

Attendance Changes!

Our Truancy Judge has made the following changes to the elementary school tardy times for RISD:

*A student arriving from 8:00 – 8:09 will be counted as tardy.             

*A student arriving from 8:10 – 9:29 will be counted as a Partial Day Absence.

*A student arriving after 9:29 without a doctor’s note will be counted absent. 

Partial Day Absences get reported to the Truancy Court after 5 times of arriving after 8:10 and the parent will be required to go to Truancy Court.

Please make every effort to have your child at school in time to be in their classroom by 8:00 a.m.  It is a disruption to their day and to the rest of the class when they come in tardy.  Thank you for helping with this!
