We had a great year with Mr. Wadle on the Rice team, but he is moving on with our 5th graders to serve as Assistant Principal at Hubbard MS. Once a Ranger, always a Ranger!

Please help us welcome our new Dean of Students, Mr. Michael Cleghorn. He joins us from Tyler Legacy HS where he served as a World Geography teacher, member of the district planning committee, and lead district mentor for secondary campuses.

Welcome to the team, Mr. Cleghorn!

Let’s hear it for our amazing teachers!!

Our fifth graders in Mrs. Hall’s science class proudly presented their projects at the 3rd Annual Science Fair! Over the past three weeks, these students have worked incredibly hard researching, creating, and preparing their display boards. We’re so proud of their effort, creativity, and dedication. Great job, Rangers!

A huge thank you to CrossPointe Church for treating our teachers to a delicious Jason’s Deli lunch during the last week of school! We are incredibly grateful for your generous support and love for our amazing staff. 🥪🎉❤️
