The Raymondville School will not be in session Monday, November, 30. We are unable to have school tomorrow due to the fact we will not have any heat in the Middle School. The work on this buildings roof had the heating units disconnected and they will not be reconnect until tomorrow morning. We will be back in session on Tuesday. We are sorry for any inconvenience that this causes our families. Buses will be at the school in the morning to run high school students to Houston and Licking. They will pick them up at the end of day and return them back to the school to be picked up.
The Raymondville Volunteer Fire Dept hosted a fire prevention day on November 6th. Thank you RVFD for taking the time to educate our students on fire safety!
Our students took time to show appreciation by honoring our Veterans in our community with a drive-thru parade. Our very own Veteran, Don Buchanan spoke to some of our classes about his service in the Army. Thank you for your service!
Raymondville Elementary will be running double routes in the afternoons for the remainder of this week. November 4th-6th. Thank you.
Tomorrow, November 4th, we will have to make adjustments to our morning drop offs and parent pickups because of the roof work being done. All students will be dropped off at the middle school breezeway and picked up there in the afternoon. The entrance to the front doors will be blocked off during the day. Please call the office if you need entry, and we will help assist you. We appreciate your patience during this process.

For the upcoming Raymondville Middle School Basketball season, we have had to implement changes that were agreed upon with all the K-8 schools we will play. These changes are implemented for everyone’s safety because of the Corona Virus. These are the changes that will impact our families and community:
Each game is limited to 70 spectators (35 for each team)
Vouchers will be used for admittance that the schools will give (each player will have 2 vouchers to use for their family for each game) Tickets will be sent home with players the day before the game.
Masks are highly recommended, but not required
Temperature checks at the door
Live streaming of all home games will be done through that School’s Facebook page
We understand that these changes can be difficult, but we hope that each of you will be supportive and respectful of each of the districts.

The Raymondville School District was approved to offer free breakfast and lunch meals to all students through December 2020. This is from an extended waiver for the Seamless Summer Option, which is part of the National School Lunch Program. This program was not extended until 8/31, so students would only owe for the first 3 days of school. Lunch bills are being sent home today. We are grateful for this program and hope that it benefits our families.
******UPDATES******
Tomorrow is fall picture day. We have extra forms in the office if you need one.
