Good afternoon Rich Hill families, School, in its usual form, is cancelled at Rich Hill R-IV through April 3rd. This decision does not come lightly. We understand the challenges this places on families, but for the safety of all in our community, we feel it is in the best interest to keep students home. Meal delivery to every student who requests it is still available to all. If you want your children to be included in this service, please email or call the elementary or high school office.If you are already signed up for meals, no further action is needed. You will continue to receive meals until school resumes or you tell us to stop delivery. All students can expect a phone call from a teacher over the next few days. Our staff members are working together so that we can plan instructional activities for your students soon. For those with internet access, these will be delivered electronically. For those without internet access, we are problem-solving the logistics of delivering materials on paper. This is a new system for all of us, so we ask for patience with one another in this process. The Rich Hill R-IV School District’s mission is to empower lifelong learners. Together, the staff, the board of education, the parents, and the students will rise to this occasion and fulfill this mission. We will continue our open lines of communication. We will continue to work together to provide an education to our students. And we will continue to care for one another. Thank you. Best wishes to you all!
