Welcome Back!
Principal Message - August 2025
Dear Roadrunner Families ~
On behalf of the Renton Park Learning Community, I am excited to welcome you to the 2025–2026 school year! I hope you had a wonderful summer and are ready for an amazing year ahead.
This year our theme is “Under Construction”—a reminder that growth takes careful planning, teamwork, and strong foundations. Together we will keep building belonging, strengthening skills, and breaking down barriers so every student can thrive.
At Renton Park, our vision remains steadfast: ensuring EVERY child, EVERY day, in EVERY classroom and environment is engaged in high-quality learning experiences. Our Office Team is busy welcoming and registering new families, our Custodial Team has worked tirelessly to provide clean and safe learning spaces, and our teachers and staff are already planning and preparing meaningful learning opportunities for our Roadrunners.
We are so grateful for your partnership as we embark on this year of construction, creativity, and growth—brick by brick, beam by beam, every child, every day.
Below are a few important dates/info to tuck away as we begin the year:

Renton Schools provides school supplies for all elementary and middle school students in classrooms at the start of the school year. Families pay a low, one-time fee of $30 ($10 for families on free/reduced lunch) for enough school supplies for the entire school year (backpacks and lunchboxes not included). Families who wish can continue to bring their own school supplies. High school students will continue to provide their own school supplies.
Cost for school supplies for the full year is only $30 ($10 for families free/reduced lunch). Families can pay the one-time fee through their Online Payment account or at their school.
Families can find their students’ school bus routes and pick-up and drop-off times in several ways this school year. School bus routes are ready to view on Monday, Aug. 18.
- Login to your Family Skyward Access account and click the Transportation button (remember to log into each student’s account to find their individual bus routes and pick-up/drop-off times)
- Download the MyRideK-12 app to your cell phone at https://myridek12.tylerapp.com/. This app will also allow families to receive real-time messages about changes to their school bus routes through the school year.
- Contact Transportation Office at Transportation.Routing@rentonschools.us or call 425.204.4455
Important Rules for Riding a School Bus
- Students should be at designated stop location five (5) minutes prior to the scheduled arrival of the bus. School and transportation schedules will not allow drivers to remain at a stop location waiting for students to arrive.
- Kindergarten/preschool students will not be allowed off the bus without a parent/guardian present. To have your student dropped off with a sibling or other authorized adult, complete this release form and give it to your school bus driver.
