Principal's Message—May 29, 2026

Dear RES Families,

The end of the school year is always a bittersweet time. We are thrilled to celebrate our oldest students as they wrap up third grade and prepare to head to Eden Hall, just as we celebrate everyone's "graduation" to the next grade level.

A tremendous amount of hard work has gone into the successes and growth we’ve witnessed this year. If you pause and look back to August 2025, it is incredible to see how far your children have come with both their academics and social relationships. New learning, new friendships, new opportunities, and new memories have all made a positive impact, helping shape them into the wonderful children they are today.

I want to thank you for your continued partnership and support. Thank you for working with us through the challenging moments and joining us in celebrating the triumphs throughout the school year.

Important Summer Note: Richland Elementary School will be closed this summer for the final phase of our HVAC project. If you need assistance during the break, please reach out to me directly via email, and I will gladly guide you to the right building or person for answers.

Enjoy the summer! Read for fun, embark on new adventures, keep the learning going, and we will see you in the fall!

With PRide,

Jenna L. Rucker, Principal
