BUS ROUTES - School Bus Transportation is a privilege that is available to students across RNESU. Please review the bus expectations with your students. Bus Expectations and Routes can be found at https://www.rnesu.org/page/bussing-and-routes.
CALLING FOR ACTION - Free & Reduced-Price Meal Application - Although breakfast and lunch will remain free this year, completing the application is still essential for the district. The quantity of completed forms is tied to funding from the federal government for free school meals now and in the future, as well as funding for other school programs. Filling out the form also helps our community provide free summer meals to all kids, including those in childcare. This application process may also qualify your family for low-cost internet.
