Our October read aloud was Creepy Carrots by Aaron Reynolds .

This is a funny and slightly spooky story about Jasper Rabbit, who loves eating carrots from Crackenhopper Field—until he begins to suspect that the carrots are following him. Were the carrots really following Jasper...or was it just his imagination? Talk about this with your Eagle...the feelings Jasper had were real (even if it was just his imagination).

As the season of giving approaches, we are once again called to uplift our school community by supporting those in need. Many Richland One families continue to face challenges, including food insecurity, but together we can make a difference in a meaningful way. This year, Richland One is proud to once again partner with the City of Columbia Parks and Recreation Department and Harvest Hope Food Bank to host the 2027 Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Honor the Dream Food Drive. Food Drive Details Dates: October 12, 2026 - November 13, 2026
