Our students had an opportunity to thank the Richland Masonic Lodge No. 385 and the Masonic Home of Missouri for their generous donation of $5400.00. These funds will be used to purchase flexible seating, clothing, shoes, school supplies, and pay lunches. Additionally, Masonic Rite Care Program provided $6800.00 to assist in purchasing an Assistive Communication Device for a student. Thank you to the Masonic Lodges for your dedication to all students at Richland Elementary!



Our lost and found at the elementary is overflowing! Please check it out and send your kiddos to gather up their lost items. On Tuesday, before Thanksgiving break, we will bag up all items that are left behind and donate them. If you see something familiar give us a call and we will get it to the right child!
