I would like to thank all our senior citizens and veterans for coming out to the high school lunch today. It was great to be able to hold this traditional event. We couldn't have asked for a more beautiful day to honor our Richland community.
Richland HS/JHS parents: Tomorrow, the school is hosting two big events. In order to plan for both, we are re-routing our parking lot to accommodate our senior citizen’s and veterans as well as address our vaccination crowd. If you need to come to the school during the day, we ask that you enter by the tennis courts, park in the gravel parking, then come in to the school to take care of your business. Thank you.
Fort Leonard Wood is host a hiring fair on April 17th at St. Robert City Hall from 11:00am-3:00pm. This is a great opportunity for student 16 years and older to gain experience over the summer or those interested in a part-time job. See the attached flyer for more information.

Please have the necessary sections completed on the physical prior to the examination. Please contact Kim Latham if you have further questions: klatham@richlandbears.us or 765-3711 ext. 1122.
RHS and RJHS parents and students: With EOC testing beginning next week and MAP testing beginning in May, we are asking that all Chromebooks be returned to the school. For the remainder of the school year, Chromebooks will remain in Bear Time each day and not taken home. Students will continue to have access to them during the school day.
