Remember that THIS is the time to start thinking about the end of semester grades...

Got a low grade on a major assessment?

• Meet with your teacher for extra help.
• Do the pre-work required reassess.
• Schedule the retake.
• Even though your teacher isn't grading it, do your homework.

What if the grade you got isn't an F?

• Do the pre-work required reassess.
• Schedule the retake.
• Even though your teacher isn't grading it, do your homework. 😉

Richmond County School System STAR students and teachers were honored for their academic accomplishments during the Augusta Kiwanis Club luncheon on February 12.

2024 STAR Students and STAR Teachers are:

The 2024 STAR Student and STAR Teacher luncheon is sponsored annually by the Augusta Kiwanis Club and the Georgia Chamber of Commerce.

Anyone wanting to volunteer must follow the volunteer policies for the Richmond County School System. They must also complete the Mandated Reporter Training.

There are 3 levels of volunteers and volunteers have been cleared at the appropriate levels before working with students.

Please check in with Ms. Hawkins, our school social worker, for more information. (hawkica@boe.richmond.k12.ga.us)

If your child needs to be absent for any reason this school year, please utilize the school attendance email address: musketeerattendance@gmail.com. We are encouraging parents to provide doctor/dentist excuses, as much as possible. The RCSS code of conduct permits 5 parent notes per school year.

For COVID-19 related absences, please contact Nurse Tiller at TilleCu@boe.richmond.k12.ga.us. When all information is received, the attendance will be updated and teachers will receive an email informing them of the student’s absence.

Yeah, I couldn't either. While I was logged in as a parent, I went to Account. Scrolled down to QR Code for Mobile Login and there it was! Very easy...once you know what you are looking for!

Switch browsers. For whatever reason, I kept clicking logout and it was keeping me logged in to my son's account. I had his account open in Chrome and had to create my account in Firefox.

Go to the parent site. Create an account. Enter one child's paring code--I suggest doing your favorite kid first....kidding! Once you are logged in, if you have multiple kids, go to Account, then down to Observing. In the box, add the pairing code from your other child and click "+Student." Voila!

Get the paring code from your child(ren). To do that, have them login. Go to Account. Then Settings. On the right side, there will be a button that says, "Pair with an Observer." Write this code down or take a quick pic for your child (or children if you have multiple in the school system. Do all of your children at once. It'll be easier. Also, if you are a teacher in RCSS, it was recommended to me to use a separate email account from my work email.)
