Rio Rancho school board to address bell schedule proposal
There is some concern the new schedule would mean more demand for bus transportation, which is already feeling a squeeze.
RIO RANCHO, N.M. — Parents in Rio Rancho will get to weigh in on school issues Monday night, including a proposed change to the bell schedule.
Rio Rancho Public Schools’ Board of Education is scheduled to discuss moving from a four-tier bell time to a three-tier bell time.
A study showed this change would only increase the need for more buses. Rio Rancho school leaders say there is already a bus driver shortage.
The meeting is scheduled to start at 5:30 p.m.
