Nov 2 - 6, 2026

RDS This Week:

Monday - 1st period

Tuesday - 2nd period

Wednesday - 3rd period

Thursday - 4th period

Friday - Homeroom

We have school Monday through Friday this week, 7:40 - 2:50 daily.

Students should be in their seats in the classroom by 7:40, so plan to have them to school by 7:30 am.

Some students and families are a little confused about the tardy policy. Arriving at the school door at 7:40 is still going to result in the student being marked tardy.

Students should be in their classrooms by 7:40.

It takes some time to walk from the school entrance to classrooms, and the car rider line gets long starting at 7:25, so please plan accordingly.

Picture retakes were originally scheduled for November 6, but those have been rescheduled to November 13.

Mark your calendars for the following testing dates. Please do not schedule any medical appointments on the following dates:

November 5 & 6 -- WorkKeys (for select seniors who have taken 2 consecutive CTE courses). Qualified students will be notified. These days are regular school days - all students attend school.
