Richland Northeast HS

Happy New Year!!!

Wishing eveyone a wonderful New Year!
May 2025 bring us closer to our dreams and goals.

Free to Focus Cell Phone Policy

The new Free to Focus policy will be implemented at the start of the second semester on January 7, 2025. Under this policy, students must have their cell phones, including any other electronic device, turned off and stored in their bags between 7:40 AM and 3:53 PM. This includes prohibiting earbuds, headphones, iPads, tablets, and smartwatches during this time. Please discuss this new policy with your child as we get closer to returning to school. We will have class meetings on January 7th to discuss the new policy with students as well.

Thank you for your continued support of Richland Northeast and Richland Two.

Spring Registration for SAT/ACT Reopens

This is a gentle reminder that the deadline to register for the Spring School Day testing of the ACT or SAT is fast approaching. This is a free opportunity for all 3rd year students and eligible 4th year students to take one of these standardized tests.

Important Dates and Information:

Eligibility for 4th Year Students: Only 4th year students who did not take the ACT or SAT during the Fall School Day testing are eligible to register for the Spring session.

Accommodations for Students with IEP or 504 Plans:

  • Students with an IEP or 504 plan who require testing accommodations must submit the completed and signed a College Board Consent or ACT Consent form to Dr. Myers (mmyers@richland2.org) by January 5th at 11:59 PM.
