This is an important announcement from the Rich Hill R-IV School District. Due to the weather advisory issued by the National Weather Service extended through noon tomorrow, there will be no school on Tuesday; however, because temperatures will begin to warm through the afternoon, the basketball teams will still travel to Osceola. The bus will leave the school at 3:50 and the games will begin at 5:30pm. Thank you and stay warm and safe.
This is a reminder from the Rich Hill R 4 School District that there will be no school on Monday for students. Teachers will be in Professional Development on Monday. Thank you and have a great weekend!
Dear Community Members and Organizations:
This is the time of year when people are feeling gratitude for having things they need, wishing for things they want, or being acutely aware that they don't have the things they need or want. Several civic groups and individuals have approached me this year about making donations to the school for kids in need.
Some of you have been able to provide for specific things which have benefited kids greatly. But we do have students, especially our older students, who often need things immediately. Predominantly toiletries like shampoo, soap, body wash, toothpaste, and deodorant. We also have need to provide kids with sweats, underwear, socks, or hoodies for various reasons from kindergarten through 12th grade. If you can provide unopened toiletries for both boys and girls, or unopened underwear or sweats (new/like new) for boys or girls anywhere between 5T and 40 inch waist, or new or like new hoodies from 5T to XXL, you would help us provide the best possible learning environment we can give to children.
Other items our nurse uses to care for kids daily includes zip lock bags, Tylenol, ibuprofen, children Tylenol and ibuprofen (chewable), band aids, etc. (please only unopened items).
Through the state’s feminine hygiene grant, we have been able to stock a full year’s supply of feminine supplies and medication that is available to our female students so please do not donate these items.
If you would like to be put on a list to donate specific items such as a coat, or shoes, or any items we discover a child might need, please email me at kgoddard@richhill.k12.mo.us and I will make your name available and what you can provide to our principals and counselor.
All other items listed above may be dropped off at any of our offices.
Thank you all and the Faculty, Staff, Administration, and School Board wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

It has been brought to the school's attention that goods are being sold door to door as "school fundraisers." The school does not sell goods directly door to door. If it is a school fundraiser, it will be on an order form and items will be delivered at a later date or available for pickup at the school. This is also the time of year that "salesmen" will come to the door and say they are selling books, encyclopdias, etc. that the school "endorses." Again, the school does not endorse outside educational products that are not sold directly through the school or the Department of Elementary and Secondary Education's (DESE) website.
Phone call coming through with more details about the following. Also on website.

We have applied with the Bates County Commission for American Rescue Plan Funds to help the district start a daycare program. There are several teachers with little ones or expecting that can no longer find childcare in Rich Hill since all providers have closed since the COVID shutdown. We know there will be a few teachers who will have to resign if there is no childcare available. Since this is a COVID caused issue, we have applied for $287,408 to provide a facility, equipment, and first year staffing expenses to help us get up and running at a reasonable daily rate for staff. Open spots after staff would be available to working community members at a reasonable cost. The district would expand its daycare and preschool program according to demand from the community to provide working parents seamless care from birth to 5 years old. We thank the Commission for their work in distributing available funds. We think this would be a huge benefit to many families in the Rich Hill community and would benefit all of the students in the district as we would be able to keep our quality teachers by providing childcare to them.
Rich Hill R-IV School is beginning the 6th Cycle of the Missouri School Improvement Program. If you are a parent or community member, please fill in the following anonymous survey--no personal information is collected or saved. District staff may also fill out this parent and community survey. Separate staff and student surveys will be sent to staff and student email accounts. This survey will close on Friday.
