Richards Middle School proposes end-of-day seminar, reduces lunches to three
Summary
Richards Middle School Principal Huston Julian and Kyle Ray, director of secondary education, presented a proposed 2025-26 bell schedule that would move a common seminar to the end of the day, reduce lunch periods from four to three, and aim to reduce missed class time for student athletes.
Richards Middle School Principal Huston Julian, joined by Kyle Ray, Fraser Public Schools director of secondary education, presented a proposed bell schedule change for the 2025–2026 school year that would move the school’s common seminar to the end of the day.
The proposal would reduce the number of lunch periods from four to three, Mr. Julian said, and is intended to reduce missed instructional time for student athletes who often leave early for away games. District staff also asserted the change would create more flexibility in daily scheduling and help prepare students for the schedule expectations at Fraser High School.
The presentation was informational; the board did not vote to adopt the schedule that evening. District leadership noted staff had been given time on April 15 to review a draft and that further feedback and committee involvement will be used before any formal adoption.
Next steps described in the meeting record include continued review by building staff and potential inclusion of the proposal in upcoming discussions; no implementation vote or definitive adoption date was recorded at the April 21 meeting.
