Richards School Home

Letter from the Principal - Richards School has been providing students with exceptional educational experiences since our October 1928 opening. It is because of the collaborative team work between the administration, teachers, students, parents and community members that our children achieve academic success and form happy memories of school. Our “hands-on” approach to teaching makes learning exciting and fun.

Approximately, 720 students are enrolled in Junior Kindergarten (K4) through Fifth Grade. There are four to five sections in each grade level. The half-day Junior Kindergarten includes children who have turned four on/before September 1^st. Our All Day Senior Kindergarten (K5) is for those students who turned five on/before September 1^st.

As well as a strong academic program that is delivered by our dedicated teachers, there are other learning opportunities that enrich and enhance our curriculum. Vocal and instrumental music, art, physical education, guidance and library are made available for all Richards students. Spanish instruction begins in Second Grade. Believing that all children are unique learners, Richards provides support for our accelerated learners as well as services such as special education and math/reading support for challenged learners who meet criteria.

If you have additional questions or are interested in a tour of Richards School, please call our school office at 414-963-3951.

Work Hard! Get Smart! Be Kind!
