Importance of Attendance
Dear RSD Families, At Romoland School District, we are deeply committed to providing your child with a well-rounded and enriching learning experience. School attendance plays a critical role in your child’s overall success. Attendance is not just a matter of meeting a requirement; it is an integral part of a student’s educational journey. Here are a few reasons why regular school attendance is of utmost importance: Academic Achievement: Consistent attendance enables your child to fully engage with the curriculum, interact with their peers, and participate in classroom discussions. Each lesson builds upon the last, and missing even a single day can result in your child falling behind. Regular attendance helps ensure that your child is actively involved in their education and has the best opportunity to succeed academically. Social and Emotional Development: School is not only a place of learning but also a space where children develop important social skills, build friendships, and establish a sense of belonging. Regular attendance allows your child to form meaningful connections with their peers and teachers, fostering a supportive and nurturing environment. Habit Formation: Attending school consistently helps your child establish positive habits and routines. These habits extend beyond the classroom and contribute to their overall personal growth, time management skills, and future success. Preparation for the Future: The world is rapidly evolving, and the skills your child develops during their school years are crucial for their future endeavors. Consistent attendance ensures that your child has a strong foundation upon which to build their academic and professional pursuits. We understand that there may be instances when your child needs to miss school due to illness or other unavoidable circumstances. In such cases, please remember to notify the school attendance clerk as soon as possible. Contact information can be found on our website here: romoland.net/attendance . Our dedicated staff is here to support you and your child, providing any necessary resources to help them catch up on missed work and ensure a smooth transition back to the classroom. As partners in your child's education, we kindly request your cooperation in prioritizing their regular attendance. By working together, we can provide the best possible learning experience for your child and empower them to reach their full potential.

School Safety Drill Protocols
Dear RSD Families, As part of our ongoing commitment to the safety and well-being of our students, our dedicated school staff will conduct safety drill protocols with our students monthly throughout the school year. These drills are an essential component of our comprehensive safety plan, designed to ensure that our students and staff are prepared in the event of various emergency situations. The safety and security of students and staff are our top priority, and these drills play a crucial role in helping everyone understand the appropriate actions to take during different emergencies, such as fire, lockdown, evacuation, and earthquake scenarios. While we know that these drills can sometimes be unsettling, proper preparation and education are essential in creating a safe learning environment for all. Our experienced and trained staff will guide students through each drill, explaining the procedures and ensuring they understand the importance of following instructions during such situations. Please rest assured that these drills are conducted in a manner that is sensitive to the age and developmental level of each student. We encourage you to take this opportunity to discuss safety procedures with your child at home as well. Reinforcing the importance of these drills and addressing any concerns they may have can help alleviate anxiety and promote a sense of security. If you have any questions or concerns about the upcoming safety drills, please do not hesitate to reach out to your child's school. Thank you for your partnership in ensuring the safety and well-being of our students. Together, we can create a secure, nurturing environment that allows our students to thrive.

Important Safety Guidelines for Extreme Heat and Inc...
Dear Romoland School District Families, We hope this message finds you well. As we return to school with warm temperatures and the potential for inclement weather, we want to ensure the safety and well-being of our students, staff, and families. Your child's safety is our top priority, and we would like to share some essential guidelines to help everyone stay safe during extreme heat and adverse weather conditions during the school year. 1. Stay Hydrated: During hot weather, it's crucial to stay hydrated. Encourage your child to drink plenty of water throughout the day, even if they don't feel thirsty. Sending a refillable water bottle to school can help them stay hydrated. 2. Dress Appropriately: Wearing lightweight, light-colored, and loose-fitting clothing can help prevent overheating. Wearing a hat for additional sun protection and applying sunscreen can protect against harmful UV rays. 3. Limit Outdoor Activities: If possible, limit outdoor activities during the hottest parts of the day, typically between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. When engaging in outdoor activities, remind your child to take regular breaks in the shade and rest to avoid exhaustion. 4. Recognize Signs of Heat-Related Illness: Familiarize yourself with the signs of heat exhaustion and heatstroke. Symptoms can include dizziness, nausea, rapid heartbeat, confusion, and hot, dry skin. If your child exhibits any of these signs, it's essential to take immediate action by moving them to a cooler place and providing fluids. 5. Stay Informed about Weather Conditions: Keep an eye on weather forecasts and alerts. If severe weather is predicted, ensure your child is aware of any changes in their school schedule. We will communicate any necessary adjustments promptly through our official communication channels. 6. Emergency Contact Information: Please ensure that your emergency contact information is up to date in our records. In case of any unexpected weather-related incidents, we need to be able to reach you quickly. Contact information can be updated in the Aeries portal. All Romoland School District schools have hot weather plans in place for continued operations during periods of extremely hot weather. Schools will continue to monitor weather conditions and plan accordingly for outdoor activities including recess, physical education, and after-school programs in alignment with the Romoland School District Weather Protocol. We are committed to providing a safe learning environment for all our students, and your partnership is crucial in achieving this goal. By following these guidelines and promoting safe practices at home, we can collectively ensure the well-being of our school community during extreme heat and inclement weather. Thank you for your attention to these important safety measures.
