Help us have less tardies! Be on time. Teaching starts at 7:45am when the tardy bell rings, so we need everyone present and on time. Thank you for your support.
Tardies and Early Pick Up counts towards attendance.

Leader in Me - Growing Leaders at RDES
Every child at Richmond Drive Elementary is a Leader. Ask your child what they have learned about each of the habits and how they are showing leadership at school and home.
Be Proactive - September
Begin with the End in Mind - October
Put First Things First - November
Think Win-Win
Thinking Win-Win embraces an attitude that continually seeks mutual benefit in our interactions with others. It is choosing to believe that there is plenty for everybody and that other people’s success doesn’t come at a cost to us.
Habit 5: Seek First to Understand, Then to Be Understood (Listen Before You Talk)
To practice Empathic Listening is listening with the sole intent to understand another person within their frame of reference. It is recognizing that we have greater influence with others if we truly understand them first.
