We are halfway through the second six-week grading period. Parent support and involvement is crucial at both school and home. Three-week notices are being sent home this week. If your child receives a notice of concern, please contact your child’s teacher as necessary to ensure your child is successful. Kids need structure and guidance to be successful. Today’s students are our hope for the future. Let’s work together to make their future bright!

COVID-19 case updates from Marsha Hardy, Emergency Management Coordinator for San Saba County, reveal 24 active cases in San Saba County.

October is National Principals’ Month. We celebrate our principal, Rhonda Wyatt, for her leadership and dedication to excellence in education. Thank you, Mrs. Wyatt, for all that you do.
Teaching is so complex. Real educators have to discover (through trial and error) the right answers to specific, small-picture questions about curriculum, classroom management, facilities management, extracurricular activities, dress codes, instructional technology, content delivery, test prep, and so many other things. Every day, teachers deal with kids from all realms of the spectrum, and we know that teachers do a great job every day in determining specific needs for individual students.
We have a great community, students, teachers and staff. It looks to be a great year at Richland Springs.
Community involvement is the key to our success!
