🚨 Smart Phone and Watch Policy πŸ“±βŒš

Our sister Steiner Ranch schools are tightening their policies regarding smartphones and smart watches.


Currently, River Ridge guidelines are as follows:

  • Phones must remain in backpacks for the entire school day.
  • Students may wear smart watches; however, texting and calling during school hours (7:30 AM - 2:45 PM) is not permitted. We kindly ask that parents refrain from texting or calling their child during this time (if it alerts to the child's watch), as it can be distracting to the learning environment. We will encourage students to put their smart watch on "Do not Disturb" mode. Please help us by reminding your child to do this as well.


If we observe that smart watches are causing disruptions (students are texting, calling from them, or using them to record others), we will follow other campuses in prohibiting wearing them during the school day. We encourage students and parents to utilize school phones for communication with parents during the school day.


Thank you for your understanding and cooperation in maintaining a focused learning environment for all students.

Mr. Cook and his lovely wife are having a baby boy!!!! VERY SOON!! If you feel it in your heart to drop off gift cards or diapers that would be so amazing! πŸ’™

Non- working mechanical items needed for 5th grade

If you have any old mechanical equipment that we can take apart and see how it works, please send it in! We will be needing these in Sept.


Items needed for "Take-Apart"

If you have an old, non-functioning or no-longer-used machine with moving mechanical parts, we would love to take it off your hands for a 5th grade QUEST take-apart project. Those especially of interest are DVD players, VHS players, cassette tape players, boom boxes, old sewing machines, old desk-top computers, or anything with speakers or motors or moving mechanical parts but no glass. We will be reverse-engineering to see how they work, and then creating new devices with the old parts. You will not get your machine back.


Drop-off will begin Sept. 3 - you can leave items in the front office vestibule in the labeled wagons.


If you would like to join us to lend a (much-appreciated) pair of hands and/or some mechanical expertise, we would welcome that!


Please email me (Myra.Harold@leanderisd.org) or Ms. Renner (Keni.Renner@leanderisd.org) if you are interested.


Time 8:00am-8:45am M/T/W/Th; Date TBD
