Attention Parents: Little Cheer PRACTICE will be this week, Tuesday the 4th-Thursday the 6th, from 3:05-4:15. Please remember to send a snack with your child each day. At pick-up time, we ask that you please stay in your vehicles. We will send your child out to load as you pull through the pick-up line. Little Cheer PERFORMANCE will be Monday, February 10th (No School). We will send more information about the performance time later this week.
This is an important announcement from the Rich Hill School District. Starting tomorrow morning, normal bus routes will resume for all of Rich Hill. This includes those east of 49 and Early Childhood. Again, starting tomorrow, all bus routes will return to normal.
Parents, we apologize, but we are down a driver for the foreseeable future. We have a few people going through the training process, which takes several months, so we do not have a driver who can cover the route east of Interstate 49 which includes the route after school tonight. We will continue to work on a solution, but until we secure a driver, parents east of 49 will need to arrange transportation for their children to and from school until further notice. This will also affect Early Childhood. We have someone covering Early Childhood AM preschool, and PM preschool can be picked up, and PM preschool kids west of I49 can be dropped off, but PM preschool east of 49 will not be able to be taken home. Again, we are sorry for the inconvenience, but we do not have any solutions at this time. If anyone has a bus endorsement, or would like help earning their CDL and bus endorsement, please contact central office.
Kindergarten & Early Childhood Screenings for the 2025-2026 school year will be March 3rd & March 10th. Please contact the Elementary Office to make an appointment. (417)395-2227
*Students must turn 5 years old by August 1st to be eligible for kindergarten.
*Early childhood screenings are for students 3 to 5 years old.
We look forward to meeting you and your child.
Rich Hill Elementary is sending out 3 days worth of AMI packets in your child's backpack in the event we exceed our built in snow days. Please keep these until the end of the school year just in case we have to utilize those AMI days.
The Rich Hill R-IV School Board is seeking bids for snow and ice removal from main campus school parking lots (student lot, high school circle, dome, and loading dock area) for the remainder of the season as needed. The bid amount requested would be per incident. A separate amount for sidewalk clearing would be considered if presented on the bid. Bids are due in Central Office by January 31 at 3pm. The board reserves the right to reject any and all bids.
Last week, our old Student Information System (SIS) provider, PowerSchool, alerted us that their servers had been breeched by hackers. At this time, they have not identified the specific individuals who were affected. The school will release more information as PowerSchool conducts their investigation. The link to their Q&A website is here: https://www.powerschool.com/security/sis-incident/
Currently we have 4 bus routes in the morning. The evening will vary between 3 and 4 routes so drop off times may be off by as much as 20 minutes depending on whether a driver is available for the 4th route. Thank you for your patience.
Due to road conditions there will be no school on Friday.
This is Superintendent Kevin Goddard with 2 important announcements, one for parents and one for staff. Due to road conditions and extreme temperatures in the morning, there will be no school on Thursday. Tomorrow will be a work day for all staff except bus drivers and cooks. Hours will be 9am to 2pm for staff. Thank you and have a great evening.
