To all our Bulldog Students and Families,This has been a unique first two months of school. I wanted to express my heartfelt gratitude and appreciation for the flexibility and grace shown, as we all learned the virtual school environment. It has been amazing to see how well the students have mastered the skills to learn virtually. Their resilience and ability to adapt, has proven to be invaluable skills that our students demonstrate everyday. We as a school, could not be more proud of each and every one of them. To our Bulldog families, thank you for your support and understanding, as we continue to refine and improve our instructional and outreach practices to better serve your children. We are grateful for your partnership and support. If you are in need of any support that the school or our Community in Schools partners can offer, please let us know so we can assist. I hope that all of you stay safe during these complex times.Joe

Standards of Learning (SOL) Assessments are approaching and we want families to understand their options when it comes to testing. To review options and let us know of your intentions for the Spring SOL assessments, please complete the survey at www.rvaschools.net/sol.
While most RPS students are receiving virtual instruction, the Virginia Department of Education (VDOE) and the United States Education Department (USED) require some tests for students in grades 3 to 12 to be administered in-person.
To reduce the risk to both staff and students, we have implemented robust health and safety protocols. However, we understand that some families may not yet be comfortable sending students to schools to test.
Please complete this brief intent form by April 16, 2021.Si bien la mayoría de los estudiantes de RPS están recibiendo instrucción virtual, el Departamento de Educación de Virginia (VDOE) y el Departamento de Educación de los Estados Unidos (USED) requieren que algunos exámenes para los estudiantes que atienden los grados 3 a 12 se administren en persona.
Para reducir el riesgo tanto para el personal como para los estudiantes, hemos implementado protocolos sólidos de salud y seguridad. Sin embargo, entendemos que es posible que algunas familias aún no se sientan cómodas enviando estudiantes a las escuelas para que examinen.
