Week of February 2, 2026
At RLS, our mission, is to ensure that all students learn at grade level or higher
Kindness week was a massive success thanks in large part to our committed staff and KIND student body. Thank you for making this past week so special. See some pictures below. 

Thank you for your assistance with our NO GUM policy, we've seen a difference.  

This Wednesday, our entire 7th grade class will learn hands-only CPR in Physical Education. 

Come cheer on our grapplers as they host a home meet on Tuesday, 3PM! 

8th-Grade Families Only-
Thank you for a great turnout at our Yosemite Information Night. If anyone couldn't make it, don't hesitate to reach out at any time with questions. 

Next step:
You will receive a packet from RLS with our own documents that require signatures, medication lists, packing lists, etc. We will also be finalizing a headcount to avoid unnecessary fees with Nature Bridge.
