Where to find the Augusta school calendar, early release schedules and future approved calendars
The official Open Academic Calendar page is the safest place to check Richmond County School System dates. It currently includes the 2025-2026 academic calendar, current testing calendar, early release schedules, bell schedules, other approved calendars, and the RCSS consolidated calendar.
The page also lists approved 2026-2027 and 2027-2028 academic calendars. That is useful for families planning ahead, but users should still reopen the official page before making final childcare, travel, or school-year arrangements because districts may post revised calendar versions.
The academic calendar page is more useful than a random PDF because it also explains early release schedules and school bell schedules by school group. Parents should use the current page instead of relying on an old social image or copied calendar file.
📄 Current calendar
Use the official academic calendar page for the active district calendar download.
📆 Future calendars
The page currently includes approved 2026-2027 and 2027-2028 calendars.

How to check Richmond County Board of Education meetings, committees and livestreams
The official Open Board Information & Meeting Schedules page says regular meetings are held on the third Tuesday of every month at 6 p.m. in the Central Office Boardroom, and committee meetings are held on the second Tuesday of each month at 4 p.m.
The same page states that meeting days and hours are set each year at the first meeting in January and that changes are advertised in local media several days in advance. That means users should treat the normal monthly pattern as helpful guidance, not as the final answer for every month.
The official district homepage and event calendar may show changed or additional meeting dates. The safest process is to check the current event posting, confirm whether the meeting is regular or committee, and then use the official livestream or board materials link if available.
Open the official Board page
Start with the current Board Information & Meeting Schedules page.
Check the normal meeting pattern
Regular meetings are generally third Tuesday at 6 p.m.; committee meetings are generally second Tuesday at 4 p.m.
Verify the current posting
Use the official event calendar or posted notice because dates can be changed.
Use the livestream or board material links
If you cannot attend, use the official livestream link and published board resources.
Meeting caution: The official Board page gives the normal schedule, but a live event posting can reflect a changed date. For attendance, the current posting should be treated as final.
Find Augusta schools, school hours, magnet programs and assigned zones
The official Open School Directory & Hours page lists Richmond County schools, principals, addresses, phone numbers, and school categories. It includes elementary schools, middle schools, high schools, K-8 schools, magnet schools, and special programs.
Examples from the official directory include Academy of Richmond County, Cross Creek Comprehensive High School, George P. Butler Comprehensive High School, Glenn Hills Comprehensive High School, Hephzibah Comprehensive High School, Lucy C. Laney Comprehensive High School, T.W. Josey Comprehensive High School, Westside Comprehensive High School, and magnet schools such as A.R. Johnson and John S. Davidson.
For address-based school assignment, use the official Open School Zone & Bus Stop Locator. The district explains that the locator can identify assigned schools, bus number, designated stop, pickup and drop-off times, and route information based on a residential address.
🍎 School directory
Use the official directory for principals, addresses, phones, and school-hour information.
📍 Zone locator
Use the official locator for assigned school and bus-stop information by address.
🎓 High schools
Use the district directory before comparing high-school options or contact details.

Augusta district office address, main phone and best contact route
The official Open Contact Us page lists the Richmond County School System district office at 864 Broad Street, Augusta, GA 30901 and the main office phone as 706-826-1000.
The contact page also links families to messaging tools and the Infinite Campus Parent Portal. The official page does not function as a replacement for every department-specific process. If the issue is about transportation, records, registration, special education, nutrition, or school assignment, use the correct official department page for faster help.

🧭 Use the right department
Records, transportation, registration, and menus each have better dedicated pages.
Student registration, school choice and parent portal setup
The official Open Registration Central page is the starting point for enrollment-related information. It is also the safer path before creating a parent portal account because the official Parent Portal page says families should first register their child through the zoned school if the student is not already enrolled.
Richmond County also provides school-choice and magnet-program resources. Families interested in magnet or specialized programs should read current application requirements because residency rules, grades, assessments, deadlines, and school options may differ from ordinary zoned-school enrollment.
🧾 Registration Central
Use the official registration hub for new-student steps and family guidance.
📱 Parent portal
Register the student first, then follow the official Parent Portal activation process.
🏫 School choice
Magnet and specialized programs may have separate application requirements.
⚠️ Current-year rules
Do not reuse old deadlines or requirements without checking the current official page.
Bus routes, school-zone locator, StopFinder and transportation support
The official Open Transportation Page directs families to InfoFinder for bus routes and to the StopFinder bus tracking app for transportation updates. It also lists the Transportation Department phone number as 706-796-4777.
For families, the most practical workflow is simple: use the official school-zone and bus-stop locator for address-based assignment, then use district transportation resources for route support, tracking app details, daily changes, and safety guidance. Do not assume a route based on a neighbor’s stop or an old school year.
🚌 Bus routes
Use the official transportation page and linked tools for route information.
📍 Zone locator
Find assigned school, bus stop, pickup time, drop-off time, and route by address.
📱 StopFinder
Use the district-linked bus tracking app resources for transportation updates.
☎️ Questions
Transportation Department phone: 706-796-4777.
Student records, transcripts, diplomas and the right request path
The official Open Student Records, Transcripts & Diplomas page separates former-student requests from current-student requests.
It says former students enrolled May 21, 2024, or earlier may request records online, while currently enrolled students and Class of 2025 graduates should request transcripts directly through the school counselor or principal.
The district’s Open Records page adds an important warning: requests for student records should not be submitted through the Open Records Request process. Student records and public records are not the same workflow.
🎓 Current students
Request transcripts through the school counselor or principal.
🗂️ Former students
Use the official online records request route when eligible.
📄 Diplomas
Use the same official student-records section for diploma-related requests.
⚠️ Avoid the wrong form
Student records should not be submitted as Open Records requests.
Special education resources, Child Find and family support
The official Open Special Education Page says the Richmond County School System Special Education Department provides support, resources, and guidance for educators, parents, and students.
Families can also use official linked resources such as Child Find, parent rights materials, procedural guidance, and related special education supports. For an individual child’s services, evaluation, IEP, or accommodations, the school team and official department contacts remain the correct starting point.
♿ Special Education
Use the official department page for resources and guidance.
🧒 Child Find
Official Child Find information explains services available for eligible children.
👨👩👧 Family support
Parents can use official rights and resource materials.
🏫 Start with the school team
Individual student questions should begin with official school and department contacts.
Infinite Campus Parent Portal, family tools and district communication
The official Open Infinite Campus Parent Portal Page explains that the portal gives families access to grades, attendance, assignments, and important school updates.
The same page explains that if the child is not yet a registered student, families should contact the zoned school and register before creating a portal account. It also explains how to retrieve an activation key and create the parent account.
For families, that means the correct order is: confirm enrollment, use Registration Central if needed, then follow the portal activation instructions.
📱 Parent Portal
Use official Infinite Campus instructions for grades, attendance, and updates.
🧾 Register first
The district says unregistered students should be enrolled before account creation.
🔑 Activation key
Follow the official activation-key steps on the Parent Portal page.
📣 Stay updated
Keep family contact information current to receive district messages.
What Augusta school information is free and what may involve payment
Most basic Richmond County School System information should be free to check. You should not pay a third-party website to view the academic calendar, Board meeting information, school directory, school-zone locator, transportation pages, parent portal instructions, menus, or general school contacts that the district publishes publicly.
Some official actions may involve fees or paid services, such as certain transcript requests, replacement diplomas, meal-related payments, facility use, optional programs, or official records processing. Before paying anything, confirm the official district page and the correct request path.
✅ Usually free to check
Calendars, meeting pages, school directories, transportation guidance, menus, and parent portal instructions.
💳 May involve payment
Some transcript, diploma, meal, facility, or official processing requests.
🚫 Avoid unofficial payment traps
Do not pay random sites for public information available on rcboe.org.
Student records and Open Records are not the same request
This is one of the most useful distinctions for Augusta school users. The district’s official Open Records page says requests for student records should not be submitted through the Open Records Request process. Instead, student records and transcript requests should use the dedicated student-records page.
Use student-records resources for transcripts, diplomas, and private student files. Use open-records resources only when you are making a public-records request. Sending a private transcript request through the wrong channel can delay the process.
Student records
Transcripts, diplomas, and student files use the dedicated student-records page.
Open records
Public-records requests use the separate Open Records process.
Best next step
Check the official page title before submitting any request.
Why it matters
Using the wrong portal can slow down the response.
