We are excited to announce the 2024-2025 Richland #44 Teacher and Staff of the Year!
Mrs. Allison Roth teaches English at Richland Jr/Sr High School. She is an incredible teacher with high standards and expectations for all students. A fellow staff member said, "Mrs. Roth goes above and beyond for her students. She uses each student's unique strengths to help them overcome challenges. Mrs. Roth is kind, compassionate and cares not only about the students, but also about the staff."
Mrs. Seri Moch is the administrative assistant at Richland Elementary and helps oversee day-to-day operations with positivity and willingness to help wherever she can. One of her colleagues said about her, "Seri plays a crucial role in supporting the elementary every day. She is a friendly and approachable figure who listens and helps students, staff, and families all day every day. I don't know what we would do without her!"
Congratulations to these two very deserving individuals and a big thanks to all of our incredible staff members at Richland #44! 💙💛

The holidays are here, and break is near!
Thank you, Colt Country, for all that you do—
We can’t wait for Semester Two! 💛💙🎄
