The Richland R-IV School District will begin holding informational meetings to discuss the upcoming tax levy proposal on the April 2nd ballot. On January 21, 2019 the Richland Board of Education voted to propose to the voters the opportunity to continue and maintain the $.30 cent temporary tax levy and permanently continue the tax rate of $3.05. This would not be a tax increase but rather a permanent continuation since the rate of $3.05 has been in effect since 2014.
The continued financial support of the additional $.30 cents is needed to maintain and continue to improve our facilities, retain high quality staff and teachers, continue upgrading our technology, improve our transportation department and help finance other educational opportunities for the betterment of our students. The meetings will be held in the high school library on March 19, 2019 and March 22, 2019 beginning at 6:00 pm each evening.
The Richland R-IV School District will not be in session today Wednesday, February 20, 2019 due to road conditions.

As winter is hitting us hard, I think it is important to remind everyone of our ever changing school calendar and how make up days are scheduled. As of today, we have missed three whole days of school and one half day of school. We have made up two of those missed days but still have one and a half to make up. The two make up days are April 22, 2019 and then moving the last day of school to a half day on May 16, 2019.
If we miss any more days due to weather the last day of school will be pushed back one day for each day missed. I hope this clarifies any questions you have, but please feel free to call either building if you have questions.
