Want to be notified of school closings, late starts, and delays by email or RSS?  Sign up for School Alerts, a free service available to residents of Riceville Community School District

A little background about School Alerts:

School Alerts is a free, easy-to-use program that is simply the result of finding an answer to a common problem: When school needs to be closed, how do we easily notify everyone who needs to know?

When schools need to dismiss classes, close early or start late due to bad weather or other circumstances, how do parents and care-givers find out? If they are listening to the radio or watching TV they can hear or see the list of school notices there, but what about taking the notification process a step further and contact them directly?

School Alerts provides a solution to both of these problems. School administrators can sign up to post notices about school closings, delays and early dismissals, and media outlets, parents and others can sign up to "watch" certain schools or school districts, and receive instant notifications when those school administrators post a notice.

Dear Parents, Friends, Family, and Local Business Owners,

Did you know that teachers’ access to and use of hands-on learning resources in the classroom is the single most important teacher input factor toward student success?  

Did you know that teachers spend an average of $1,200 of their own money each year purchasing resources and materials for the classroom?

Attached please find information about Adopt-A-Classroom.  The program enables individuals and businesses like you to help teachers succeed in the classroom.

100% of the donation is provided to the teacher in an online account.
Adopt-A-Classroom takes $0 for administration.
All donations are tax-deductible.
No donation is too small. Any amount helps.
You receive Impact Reports that show exactly how the teacher spends the money, so it’s fully accountable and transparent.
You receive direct feedback from the teacher so you can experience first hand the impact you have made.

You can learn more about the Adopt-A-Classroom program by visiting its website at www.adoptaclassroom.org.  

This is a great opportunity to get involved.  As we all know, children learn best when the community works together toward helping students reach their highest potential.
