Families,
We would like to invite you to an informative session where you can learn about the benefits and options for licensed and licensed exempt child care. Your presence and participation would be greatly appreciated. Please RSVP by September 19 to Bree West at office.risenetwork@gmail.com.
Looking forward to seeing you!
Attention JUNIOR HIGH Volleyball Fans and Families: Due to the 7th grade overnight field trip, the Junior High Volleyball Game tomorrow (9/18) at Wellpinit will be rescheduled for a later date. Stay tuned and GOOOO TIGERS!
Here are the most updated sports schedules. Please call Dena at 775-3171 ext 107 with any questions. Thanks and GOOO TIGERS!
Attention 7th Grade Parents: There will be a final informational meeting on Thursday, September 12 at 5:00 pm in the classroom across from Mr. Zakar's in the Cameron Building. The purpose of this meeting is to go over your child's packing list and to provide you with emergency contact information for the overnight school adventure to Lake Wenatchee YMCA on September 17th, 18th, & 19th. We hope to see as many parents as possible.
Game time change! Please note that today's football game time has been moved up an hour. Kick off is at 2 pm now. See you there! GOOOO TIGERS!
Regarding Social Media Posts/Rumors/Gossip: There are posts circulating that a school district employee was arrested in the transportation department parking lot on Tuesday. This is false information and the person who was apprehended there had nothing to do with the school district in any way. We were never notified or prepared for such an event and it's disheartening to see posts by individual people who are attempting to spread misleading information to the public. If there is ever any emergency event or communication need for our community or families, that will come directly from the school distrct and will not come from second or third-hand social media posts. You may also reach out to our district office or schools if there are ever any questions or concerns. As we educate our students on responsible and safe use of social media, we would hope that other individuals outside of the school district would be able to also model this type of responsible behavior. Social media outlets can be a wonderful way to connect, share, celebrate, and provide truthful notifications within a community. Thank you for your time and we are absolutly excited for the wonderful new school year ahead!
We needed to combine the bear bus and the rabbit bus today as we were short a driver. We utilized our mass messaging system and found that some folks didn't get notified by phone or emails some of the messaging went through on the Facebook Feed and the school website. But many parents did not get the message.
We apologize that some parents did not receive the message. We have discovered a technical issue between our messaging system and our student records system. We will work to resolve the issue and we appreciate your patience and grace as we resolve the issue.
Sincerely,
Loren Finley
We are hiring!!!! We have a full time school bus driving position open. Please contact the Republic Bus garage (509) 775-3654 OR the District office (509) 775-3173 for a complete job description and application.
Good Afternoon. The Bear and Rabbit bus will be combined for the afternoon route today. Students on the Rabbit route will be approximately 1 hour late in getting home today.
Good Morning,
This message will be important for all Kindergarten and 2nd grade families.
Due to our enrollment numbers, less in Kindergarten than expected, and more in 2nd grade than expected, and our desire to strategically impact our lower grade classroom size, we are making some changes in two classrooms.
Ms. Bushnell is being moved from Kindergarten to 2nd grade, as that class has a class roster that is too large for one classroom.
Kindergarten is going to recombine as their numbers are substantially smaller.
Mrs. Starr and Ms. Bushnell will be the 2nd grade teachers. The class roster has already been split. You will receive a personal message letting 2nd grade families know who your student will have as their teacher.
Also, when you come in on Tuesday the 3rd, for orientation, we will have class rosters posted outside the classrooms.
If you have any questions, please call the elementary office at 509-775-3173.
The Republic School District will be closed 8/29-9/2 in recognition of our county fair and Labor Day holiday. Regular hours of operation will resume 9/3 for our Open House/Student Orientation, with the 1st day of school beginning on 9/4. Please reach out directly to your individual school office for assistance with registration, athletics, or your general back-to-school questions. We look forward to another wonderful school year!
