Can Someone Please HELP ME?!
Oftentimes our District families, staff, and community reach out to the Board Office, a Board mem- ber, and/or register to speak at a Board meeting because they do not know who to call, or they feel unseen or stuck. While the Board and its depart- ment are always happy to assist our families, going directly to the District staff who can resolve the issue is often the fastest way to get help. The right connection makes all the difference.
When you are not sure where to start, here are two resources available to you: RCSD Family Services: When our families have an issue or concern, we want to provide you with a clear method for com- municating those concerns. We ask that you follow the process outlined on https:// www.rcsdk12.org/familyservices, which provides the appropriate steps to take for most school- related issues.
Let ’ s Talk! Customer Service Platform:
The District is utilizing Let ’ s Talk! to help create new lines of com- munication for school and District services for parents, staff, stu- dents, and our community to ac- cess anytime, anywhere. Visit https://www.rcsdk12.org/letstalk for more information on the Let ’ s Talk! platform. Clear communication helps us re- solve concerns faster, so we can stay focused on what matters most—our students ’ success.
