This February, River City celebrates Black History Month, and we want to see every student involved! Every day this month will have a theme students, staff and families can participate in. You can access the calendar in English here, and in Spanish here.

Welcome to the Second Semester! 

As we move into the next half of our year, take a moment to review a few reminders either in English or in Spanish.

Red Tail Families,
Here are the Red/Blue day schedules for the next few months.

Dear Parents or Caregivers,

Richmond Public Schools will be administering winter Growth Assessments to students in grades 6-8 from January 17th - January 27th. The grade and subject-specific assessment dates can be found below:

To prepare for these assessments, students should:

● Get a good night’s sleep

● Eat a healthy breakfast the morning of testing

● Arrive to school on time

● Refrain from bringing personal electronic devices into SOL testing rooms

Students wishing to practice using the SOL test application prior to their tests are encouraged to use the Virginia Department of Education SOL Practice Items found at https://va8.testnav.com/client/index.html. Questions regarding this assessment should be directed to your school’s testing coordinator, Tomeka Liggans at tliggans@rvaschools.net or Valenta Wade, RPS Manager of Testing and Data Systems, at vwade@rvaschools.net.

Sincerely,

Ana Estrada-Williams

Assistant Principal
