Savage Pride

By

“Savage Pride”

This year we are focusing on traits that we are calling “Savage Pride”

  • Be Kind/Respectful
  • Be Responsible
  • Be Safe

We are also focusing on increasing student attendance including absences and tardies.

At the Riggins Elementary monthly “Savage Pride” assembly the “Elf on the Shelf” presented candy canes and a “Savage Pride” pencil to all of the students who met the school’s attendance goal for the month.  I would also, like to thank the PTO for providing lunch for each of the Student of the Month recipients.

Congratulations to Mrs. Medley’s 2nd grade! They have 96.557% attendance for the year!

Students have to be present and engaged in order to learn.

In 2017-18, the average student attendance rate was
elementary average 82.36%,
high school/middle school average 88.8%
district average 85.58%

We want children to succeed! So, our goal this year is to increase attendance to 90%.

We are almost half way through the school year and on our way to achieving that goal!
The elementary average is currently at 94.993%.
The high school/middle school is at 91.056%.

News Report on Bomb Threat

By

November 29, 2018

Re: Statewide Bomb Threat

To Parents/Guardians and Patrons,

In reference to the news reports concerning a “Statewide” bomb threat that was supposedly sent to all school districts and airports in the State. The first time I heard about this was last night when I read it in the news.  The District, at no time, had received a threat of any kind. If we had, I assure you that, we would have taken appropriate action which would have included contacting authorities and communicating to the situation to parents and guardians.
