Class of 2020: Attached is a link to a site we have made available for families who may want a different graduation text inside their graduation announcements due to the current circumstances. The templates provided allow families to print them at home, cut them out and place them in an announcement. The texts are not tied to a specific date and therefore allow graduation announcements to be mailed at anytime; celebrating an achievement without being tied to a specific date.

Parents/Students 4/2 Update:
We’ve come up with an alternative plan to continue to feed our students and meet the Food & Drug Administration guidelines, protect our staff, and further limit our interaction during this current health crisis.

Beginning next Wednesday and every Wednesday going forward, our staff will hand out bags containing five breakfast meals and five snacks per person. These bags will be distributed once per week at Belmont, Chaloner, Clara Hearne, and Manning from 10am - noon.
We are also changing the times of instructional packet distribution to 10 am to noon to coincide with meal distribution.
Packets will be distributed every other Wednesday beginning April 8.
Additional safety procedures will be put in place during distribution for staff to mitigate infection including mandatory use of gloves and other CDC guidelines especially social distancing.
Once again we appreciate your patience and understanding as we continue to navigate and make the best decisions for our families and staff during this pandemic.

RRGSD Alert: Based on what we were instructed by the Governor’s Office and the Department of Public Instruction, our highest priorities were then, and still are, to make sure that all of our students are fed. We will continue to do that Monday through Friday from 10 to noon at both Belmont and Manning Elementary Schools.
We’re working on a remote learning plan. We will have more on that plan next week until then we ask that you visit our RRGSD Instructional Services website for the “Resources for Learning” page. There you can find digital resources for students in Pre-K through 12 in all subject areas for enrichment. So far these missed days are considered teacher workdays so NO grades are being taken at this time.
Thanks for your patience and understanding.
The COVID-19 pandemic is unlike any event we have ever seen, forcing all of us to make countless decisions that have no precedent.
