We're excited to be on a phased approach for opening Belmont & Manning Elementary because it means we get to see our students face to face very soon. Monday, Oct. 5 we welcome our Pre-K & Kindergarten. Oct. 12, first and second grade, and Oct. 20 third through fifth will join them. The health and safety of our students, faculty and staff is our top priority — that’s why we will be following state mandates and requiring everyone to wear a cloth face covering to lessen the spread of the coronavirus and to protect the RRGSD community. Parents, please remember masks are required for everyone while on school property.
