Thank you, PTO, for taking Rowdy shopping for school supplies, and for compiling school supply lists. It looks like Rowdy is ready for another great year as a Richards Raider!

Hi, Richards Raiders! Popping in to interrupt your summer with Open House information. I know, it's too soon for some of us (but not for me - I'm so excited to be back at Richards!). I will be back with more information closer to the beginning of the school year. In the meantime, soak up every minute of time with family and friends.

Excited to see those smiling faces in a little more than a month!

Thank you so much for your hard work, organization, and commitment to our school! Also, a big thank you to our cafeteria staff! This will be a field day these children will never forget.

Our art teacher Mrs. Powers had 5th graders create monster designs back at the beginning of the school year. Through a collaboration project with the ceramics teacher, Miss Davidson at Columbus North, her high school students sculpted the 2D designs into real 3D models. 5th grade received their sculptures today, and the craftsmanship was superb! These are just a few of the many amazing sculptures Miss Davidson’s students made.
