RHS 2018-2019 SCHOOL DAY SCHEDULE.
LWSD has announced that school start and end times will be changing
in the 2018-19 school year.
In the Fall at Redmond High School, a 7-period day will be implemented and the end-of-day will be extended by twenty minutes.
In order to ensure that families have ample time to plan, here is our
RHS Bell Schedule
for the 2018-2019 7-period school day.
RHS IS NOW A LEVEL 2 GREEN SCHOOL!! The RHS Green Team helped our school receive recognition from the King County Green Schools program for certifying our school as a Level 2 Green School. This was done by improving the recycling system in the school, advocating for paper usage reduction by the staff, and conserving energy. Thank you for your help in making our school more sustainable!
2018-19 PARKING PERMITS Starting next week, parking permit applications for the 2018-19 school year will be available in the main office, online and in D-103. Students may purchase and pick up their permits beginning the last week of August. If you have questions please see Mr. Handschin in D-103.
