Adminisrator Update

Welcome to the Old Richmond Wildcat blog! This is my first attempt to use the blog to keep staff updated on Wildcat happenings. Bear with me as I learn this new technology!

Report Card Time!

Report cards will be checked by Mrs. Fariss and Mr. O'Neal

For second quarter, Mrs. Fariss will check all reports from grades K, 2, and 4
Mr. O'Neal will check reports from grades 1, 3, and 5 and EC.

Homeroom teachers should get 2 copies of each SFA report card (one for their records and one to send home). SFA teachers should keep one copy of each child's SFA report card. After SFA report cards are checked, SFA teachers should give those to homeroom teachers. Please remember to save all report cards to the proper folder on the server. These should be saved by the date that report cards are sent home, please!

Please make comments on each report card. Use the child's name in the comments and please be sure the comment supports the grade. If a child has dropped in performance since interim report, that certainly deserves a comment so parents understand! Likewise, if a student's conduct or grades have improved since interim, that should be noted.
Please do not do wholesale generic comments. Instead, please make your comments child-specific.

Dates: SFA report cards are due to the office by 8:30 Report cards (EC, ESL, AG) are due to the office by 8:30 on .

Thanks for your attention to detail and for your efforts to communicate with parents! Please get report card to administrators on or before the given date so we have time to read and return reports to you.

Report cards will be sent home on
Welcome back! I hope each of you had a restful, enjoyable holiday and are ready to hit the ground running!
