ATTENTION RED BOILING SPRINGS ELEMENTARY SCHOOL PARENTS PUBLIC SCHOOL CHOICE If you have a child that attends RBS Elementary School, you have a choice to keep your child at RBS Elementary or to transfer your child to another school in the county.  RBS Elementary has been identified as a High Priority school in School Improvement 1.  The school scored 86.2% in Reading this past year 2008-09.  They improved their score 2.8% from the previous school year 2007-08, but, because the State requirement was 89%, RBS Elementary did not meet the required benchmark.  A letter was sent to all students that presently attend RBS Elementary about Public School Choice.  If you did not receive a letter and would like to have more information about this, please contact: Michael Owens, Principal of Red Boiling Springs Elementary School:  615-699-2222 or Cindy Gammons, Federal Programs Supervisor:  615-666-2125 [The total number of students eligible for Public School Choice was 366.  One student has transferred under Public School Choice.]

PUBLIC AWARENESS AND CHILD-FIND INDIVIDUALS WITH DISABILITIES Each school system in Tennessee has the responsibility of providing a free and appropriate public education for all certified disabled children between the ages of 3 through 21 years.  Early detection and treatment of persons with disabilities is very important. If you know of any individual who may have a disability who is not presently receiving an appropriate educational program or other needed services, please call 666-2125.  The superintendent, the supervisor of Special Education, or the school psychologist will be glad to talk with you.
