Mark Kincaid visited RJ Richey for Board Appreciation Month. Thank you for all you do for our district.

Thank you to our School Board members for your leadership and commitment to our students, staff, and community. We appreciate your efforts in leading us into the future. Thank you for all your dedication and hard work for our school district.

The Spirit award is given to students who help to foster the classroom atmosphere, and who are friendly to everyone in all settings. They are group leaders and helpers. The Bulldog Spirit recipient is a student who helps to create a positive class and school environment for everyone. We are so proud of the leaders we have at RJ Richey.

Burnet CISD has transitioned to a new student information system provided by Skyward. The Skyward Family/Student Access for viewing attendance and grades is now live! Skyward Family/Student Access is a free service and is available to all parents and guardians of students enrolled in the Burnet Consolidated Independent School District. Skyward Family Access replaces the TxEIS Parent Portal. Family/Student Access is a secure internet-based website allowing parents and guardians easy access in tracking their student's progress. This new service will continue to allow viewing of student's attendance, assignments, grades, and schedule.

As a reminder, a new volunteer application must be completed. We will begin accepting volunteer applications for the 2019-2020 school year beginning July 1, 2019.

Burnet CISD has developed a new process to streamline a parents request to change how a student is getting home (bus to car, car to bus, walking). Please see the attached information on how to place these request.

She is an all around wonderful person. She always has a smile on her face. She is a great teammate to work with. She has been a tremendous help to me making my way back into the classroom. She is a joy to work with.

It is with great pleasure that RJ Richey Elementary recognizes Lauren Nelson as our Gem of the Month! Since joining the RJ Richey team, Lauren has done an excellent job of spreading her infectious positive attitude everywhere she goes. Lauren is especially adapt at building and maintaining relationships with students who have been difficult in the past and often gets great effort from students who have been hard to motivate in the past. Lauren is always prepared and represents the school well in ARD meetings and planning sessions. She is easy to work with, and her can-do attitude even in tough situations is refreshing. Please join me in congratulating Lauren!
