On behalf of all RVSD staff, I want to let you know how excited we are that you have chosen Ross Valley for your child/ren’s education. We are very excited for the new school year and are thrilled to have you back with us and to have all our new families join the RVSD Community! We hope the 2018-19 school year is off to a great start for you and your student/s, and we are looking forward to a fantastic year of growth, learning, and, of course, fun!
Some Back-to-School forms are on SchoolMint, our online student enrollment system. Other information and forms are sent home via backpack-mail during the first week of school and are also available here on our district back-to-school webpage. If you do not have printer access, either drop by your child’s school office to pick up copies or ask that they be sent to you. Please complete and submit all required and applicable forms as soon as possible but no later than Friday, September 21, 2018.
To complete the Back-to-School forms on SchoolMint, log in to your account at http://rvsd.schoolmint.net. If you have forgotten your username or password, follow the instructions on the “Forgot Username” and/or “Forgot Password” links. Once you have logged in, click the green “Start” button for each child who is returning to an RVSD school. You do not need to complete the forms in one sitting. Once you submit the forms, you will no longer be able to access them. If you realize you need to make a correction, please contact the school office.
The following items are provided to students during the first week of school, and they are also available here.
Please review the items below and complete and submit the applicable forms to your child’s school office.
All volunteers must submit within 30 days of volunteering a “Volunteer Application” along with written verification from a healthcare provider of negative tuberculosis within the last 4 years (i.e. skin test or Risk Assessment Questionnaire). If in doubt as to whether your participation in our schools constitutes volunteering, please check with your child’s school’s principal and/or administrative assistant. Note that additional requirements apply to those who will be volunteering as field trip drivers and/or chaperones on overnight field trips.
Family members may volunteer at a student’s school. For anyone other than a student’s family member who wishes to volunteer, please contact the applicable school office to learn more about the required procedures. We encourage all persons to submit the paperwork at the beginning of the school year, even if you are unsure you will volunteer, to ensure there will not be any confusion or delay at the time of the event.
In addition to the Volunteer Application and TB clearance, the Field Trip Driver form and a copy of the auto insurance policy declaration page for each vehicle to be driven on field trips are also required for any parent/guardian driving on a district school event, including if only driving your own child.
We encourage all persons to submit the paperwork at the beginning of the school year, even if you are unsure you will drive on a school-sponsored activity, to ensure there will not be any confusion or delay at the time of the event.
