Technical Difficulties on Riedlteach.com

Some of you may have noticed problems accessing Riedlteach.com in the past week. Unfortunately, I have been experimenting with domain forwarding, DNS settings, contacting domain support, dealing with confusing IP address, and so much more! I am learning a lot about the technical aspects of websites, but sadly it is still not doing what I want. So, I'm still working on it, and you should still be able to access the site using the links at the top of the page to get where you need to go. Please let me know if you have any questions about navigating my website. Thank you for your patience!

Music Update

There will be a Baroque Period Test on Thursday, Feb. 13th. Students received their study guides last week. Feel free to direct any questions to Mrs. Brumley (although she just had surgery, so I'm not sure how immediate her responses will be).

Take Action Inc. Food Drive!

From now until February 14th, our entire school will be working together to support Take Action Inc. and their mission to help children who often go without food for entire weekends when they are not in school to eat. Please look for "The List" in the student mailboxes to know what to bring it to donate!

Person of the Week
