Medications at School

The parent/guardian of a student on continuing medication must inform the principal or other designated certificated personnel of the medication being taken, including the dosage, and the name of the supervising physician. 

For district staff to assist with a student's medication school personnel must receive a written statement form the physician detailing the method, amount and time schedules by which the medication is to be taken, and a written statement from the parent/guardian indicating that they desire the school district to assist their child in the matter set forth by the physician. (E.C. 49423) 

With the consent of the parent/guardian, the school may communicate with the physician who may counsel the school personnel regarding possible side effects of the drug. This may include effects on the student's physical, intellectuals and social behavior as well as adverse effects which may indicate overdose, toxicity, or omission. (E.C. 5141.21)

Cyberbullying and Internet Safety

Parents & Students,

Rio Linda Preparatory Academy believes that every child deserves a safe school environment. Bullying and harassment of any kind, including cyberbullying (texting, social websites, etc.) will not be tolerated.

It's the Law! - A. B. 86, 2008 Code §32261 (g) Lieu. Pupil safety. Gives school officials grounds to suspend a pupil or recommend a pupil for expulsion for bullying, including, but not limited to, bullying by electronic act
 

Wellness Room 

The Wellness Room is a safe and supportive space where students can take a brief break, manage emotions, and practice strategies to help them reset and refocus. Students can receive support from a trusted adult, use calming techniques, and develop skills for managing stress and challenging situations so they can return to class ready to learn.
LCAP Parent Surveys

LCAP Parent Surveys

Each year, TRUSD distributes surveys to gather information from students, families, staff, and community members to help our school district gain vital information to assist in meeting students' needs. It has questions about academics, safety, and other important topics.  As these surveys become available, we will post them on this webpage. 
 
Your input is valuable and helps us continue to grow to meet the needs of our Squires.
