STAR Families,
We hope you can join us for the very first Battle of the STAR Families being held on Thursday, September 29th at 4pm! Our STAR Students will have the opportunity to purchase admission ($2 per person; cash only) to this Student Council event from Monday, September 26th to Wednesday, September 28th between 7:10am and 7:40am in the hallway. STAR Parents, if your student pays in advance between Sept. 26th and 28th, a member of Student Council will pass out wristbands to the homeroom teacher the morning of Thursday, September 29th. PLEASE make sure you and your child have those wristbands on when you arrive for the event on the 29th. If you do not pay in advance, the price increases to $5 (cash only) at the gate. We will begin on time, so the gate will be closed at 4:30pm and admission will no longer be available. Student Council will not offer refunds. Sandlapper's Student Council Sponsors are Ms. Dinkins (kdinkins@richland2.org) and Mrs. Walker (brwalker@richland2.org). Contact them if you have questions about this event. Thank you!

💲Technology Insurance Fee💲
All Richland Two students are assessed a non-refundable $20 technology insurance fee to cover the cost of technology repairs. The technology fee plan provides 100% repair cost coverage for the first instance of accidental damage to the student’s school-assigned computing device. The plan also covers the cost of device replacement in the event of theft, provided a police report is filed.
The cost of repeat instances of device damage will be assessed according to the full cost of repair. The deadline to pay the technology insurance fee is September 30th of each school year. The technology insurance fee cannot be paid after September 30th. The coverage period for technology insurance begins as soon as the premium is paid in full, which must be done no later than the September 30th deadline, and runs through September 30th of the following year. The full details of the technology fee plan are published in the technology insurance fee documentation available on Sandlapper's website.
We highly suggest ALL K-5th grade students have technology insurance. Although a few grade levels do not take their devices home daily, accidents still occur. The technology insurance covers most situations.
