Principals' Message—November 22, 2024

Happy early Thanksgiving!

As the holiday season approaches, we’re reminded of all we’re grateful for, including your support at home and the Pine-Richland community.
We’re proud of our students for their focus on learning and their consistent display of RAMS Way behaviors. We also recently celebrated World Kindness Week, which was a tremendous success, highlighting our students’ kindness and respect for one another.

As we move forward, we’re focusing on reinforcing digital citizenship to support a positive and productive school environment.

Digital Citizenship Reminders

On November 18, students reviewed digital citizenship guidelines, specifically around cell phone and AirPod use. While students may use these devices on their way to school, they should begin limiting use upon entering the building. By the time they reach their lockers, cell phones and AirPods should be put away and remain there until the final bell at 2:36 pm, unless part of a teacher-directed activity. After dismissal, students may resume device use as they head home.

Please continue these conversations at home. We look forward to a wonderful holiday season!

Work Hard, Stay Kind!

Dr. Kristofic & Ms. Berezo
