Welcome to the Community!
We are thrilled to welcome you to the Richland Family and we will get to know one another at the many fun events held throughout the year. As a community we work together to provide the “extras” that make Richland great! Doing this takes everyone’s help. We ask that parents volunteer their time, which is also a great way to get to know the other families and the school staff. Our volunteer efforts build community and some events raise money. While Richland is a public school, the children receive many extras that you may have heard about or even seen on the school tour.
To achieve our goal of paying for art, music, field trips, teachers’ aides, and technology, which are not provided by the school district, we have an Annual Giving campaign where every family is asked to donate $1,500 to support their child(ren). We encourage 100% participation by every Richland family. The Annual Giving campaign is our biggest fundraiser of the year; 100% of the money benefits the school. We will celebrate your generosity by again decorating the Giving Tree near the cafeteria with your name on a leaf, and we will watch the tree grow and flourish as families give to support our Richland Tigers!
Another event that we would like to draw your attention to is our annual Walk-A-Thon. Walk-A-Thon is a fun event that takes place each spring. Since you would have already contributed your $1,500 to the Giving campaign, we encourage you to ask your family and friends - outside of Richland - to sponsor your students. Sponsorship is done online, so family and friends across the country and around the world may participate.
Lastly, we hold Booster meetings on a monthly basis and we encourage you to participate. Our meetings are held on campus in the Parent Center and alternate monthly between 8:30AM and 6:15PM. We do this so more families have the opportunity to attend. From these meetings you will get a lot of insight into the daily activities at the school and information on how you can make a difference in your child’s experience.

We’re looking forward to a great year!
