From the Principal’s desk . . .
With the end of school, we can rest for a moment and reflect on what has been an amazing and wonderful year.
The Class of 2014 is a great group of students. Overall, they performed at a very high level academically and equally well outside of the classroom. I am especially proud of their work in community service in projects both large and small including Unite to Read, Baskets of Cheer, Kids Against Hunger, Hoxworth Blood Drives, Raiders for the Cure, Pat Summit Foundation for Alzheimer’s, Ryle VB for Brittany DePew and many others.
Here are a few of many impressive accomplishments from the 2013-14 school year:
Larry A. Ryle High School earned a Distinguished – Ky. School of Distinction rating (Top 5%) from the Kentucky Department of Education.
Nearly 40% of our students made the Honor Roll for the year – 259 students made the All-A Honor Roll and 390 students made the All-A/B Honor Roll.
Twenty-three students were named Advanced Placement Scholars.
Eighty-two students earned perfect attendance for the 2013-14 school year!
The overall student attendance rate for the 2012-13 school year was 95.7%, the highest high school rate in Boone County. This is a great accomplishment as Ryle is also the largest high school in the county.
The Class of 2014 exceeded $8,630,000 in academic scholarship offers.
One-hundred and thirteen seniors earned the Career Passport/Work Ethic diploma from the Northern Kentucky Chamber of Commerce.
The Class of 2014 had the following number of students earn recognition at graduation through the 3 new honors distinctions: 49–Summa Cum Laude, 30–Magna Cum Laude, and 33–Cum Laude.
In the 22 year history of Larry A. Ryle High School each class of students has demonstrated the ability and work ethic to surpass the accomplishments of the previous classes. Our congratulations go out to the Class of 2014 for Continuing the Tradition of excellence at our school.
This past year we have worked to expand our class offerings and students’ opportunities to earn a “career readiness” designation. The results are the addition of a new career pathway in the area of Biomedical Science and new courses in Computer Literacy, Digital Literacy, and Principles of Teaching.
The Biomedical Science program is a long-term commitment to offer a four class sequence, which will qualify as a career pathway in Kentucky. By completing this pathway, students may earn industry certifications and be classified as career ready.
The four class sequence of Biomedical Science courses (Principles of Biomedical Science, Human Body Systems, Medical Interventions, and Medical Innovations) features nationally recognized STEM curriculum (Science-Technology-Engineering-Mathematics) from Project Lead The Way. See www.pltw.org for more information.
To the Classes of 2015, 2016, 2017, and 2018, the future is now here! We have great expectations for you and we will work extremely hard to help you meet those expectations and to achieve your own personal goals. Together we will go to greater heights. Have a great summer!

Ryle High School: Positive Behavioral
Interventions and Support
PBIS is a researched-based approach to school
culture that emphasizes prevention, proactivity,
teaching positive behaviors, and reinforcing these
behaviors through intentional recognition.
Ryle High School has enjoyed a long history of
academic and behavioral excellence. Through our
efforts in implementing the PBIS system we
hope to continue and build upon the high
standards set forth by the Ryle community in the
past. As part of the PBIS process, we asked all
members of the Ryle community what
characteristics “define” the Ryle experience. The
results were not surprising – Tradition,
Respect, Responsibility, Service, and
Integrity.
These five expectations will be our guiding
principles as we continue to serve the students at
Ryle High School and will be threaded
throughout our work in classrooms, school-wide,
and in the community. The Ryle High School
PBIS team has deliberately created a system of
support and recognition that will provide an
optimal learning environment for our students.
As we move forward, these school-wide
expectations will serve to guide our work of
molding Ryle High School students into
successful persons. Respect, Responsibility,
Service, and Integrity will be the “pillars” of
our Tradition.

Each year the students from around the Commonwealth apply for an opportunity to participate in the

RAIDER ACHIEVEMENT PROGRAM
(RAP) This program is designed to provide the time and support for all students to reach their full potential. Students will have the opportunity to complete their ILP’s, get assistance for their class work, study for classes, seek tutoring and meet with their respective counselor or assistant principal. During this time students must remain under the direct supervision of a teacher to work on classroom requirements. This teacher will, on a weekly basis, meet and discuss the student’s academic progress in each of their classes. If a student is not performing up to standards, the student may be referred for additional academic assistance offered during this specialized time period.
Summer Reading Program
Please see the Ryle Website for your mandatory summer assignment. www.ryle.boone.kyschools.us.
This summer marks the 12th year of the Summer Reading Program at Larry A. Ryle High School. This mandatory program is designed to challenge our students to continue improving upon their reading and comprehension skills during the summer months.
During this last week of school, all students previewed the requirements of their summer
reading assignments in their English classes. All incoming 9th graders were provided with a hard copy of the assignment as well.
Depending on the grade level and class, students will choose a book(s) to read over the summer from a predetermined list and will complete an assignment for the chosen novel. Upon returning to school in August, students will submit their completed assignment for a grade.
After appropriate review and instruction from their teachers, each student will then take a test over their chosen novel. The assignment grade and test grade will be recorded in the 1st Quarter Grading Period.
Students enrolled in Honors or Advanced Placement English classes will complete their traditional summer assignment and will not be affected by the Summer Reading Program. For your convenience, the English department has contacted the Boone County Public Library and Barnes and Noble in Florence; both are aware of the books on our reading lists. The Boone County Public Library will be having summer homework study sessions in July and August. If you choose to check out books from the library, please be aware that there are limited quantities. We often have students wait until August to reserve their books and sometimes that is too late. If you have any trouble locating books for your child or have any questions, please feel free to contact Nicole Schwartz, English Department Team Leader at [email protected]

Summer Assignments
Students registered for Advanced Placement courses are required to complete a summer assignment. If you have not picked up your assignment please stop by the school office to pick one up as soon as possible. Also, all assignments are posted on our website. Failure to complete this required assignment might cancel your A.P. course request.
Community Service Requirement Larry A. Ryle High School has implemented a community service requirement for all students to complete as part of their required Senior Exit Project. Research shows that community service learning is a valuable life-long learning tool for students. 1. Enacted in the 2007-08 school year, each student will be required to complete 5 hours of community service for each academic year. 2. All community service hours will be for hours that are after the normal school day. Hours used for other clubs/organization may also be counted for the community service requirement. 3. The students will be required to have a card completed by the person in charge of the community service opportunity and returned to appropriate support staff. These cards are found in the main office. 4. The hours of community service hours will be a requirement that is included in the senior exit project. A student who does not complete the necessary hours would jeopardize their passing of the senior exit project. 5. A graduating senior will be required to complete 20 hours of community service for each year attending Ryle H.S. (recommended 5 hrs. each year).
Bullying This is a nationwide issue that schools are attempting to clarify and bring awareness in order to stop this activity from occurring in our schools. A commonly accepted definition for bullying is: “A person is bullied when he or she is exposed, repeatedly and over time, to negative actions on the part of one or more other persons, and he or she has difficulty defending him or herself.” This definition includes three important components:
Bullying is aggressive behavior that involves unwanted, negative actions.
Bullying involves a pattern of intentional behavior repeated over time.
Bullying involves an imbalance of power or strength.
Bullying is NOT, an honest mistake, an isolated incident, a lapse in judgment or a conflict between friends. Friends are going to disagree, argue and possibly say unkind things. This does not constitute bullying behavior. We must teach healthy ways to address disagreements, conflicts and hurt feelings. It is important for teenagers to understand that conflict is normal and healthy in relationships and should be handled respectfully. Learning to handle conflict appropriately maintains the integrity of the relationship. When addressing conflict appropriately it allows students the opportunity to discuss a situation instead of trying to hurt the other person. “In the end, we will remember not the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends.” – Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

Turning 16 this year?
Driver Permit Needed Before a student goes to get their driver’s license, they must pick up a “Driver’s Verification Form” from school. This form certifies that they are in compliance of the state law. The law results in the revocation of a student’s driver’s permit or license for any three different reasons: Academic Deficiency, Dropping Out of School, Excessive Absences. The No Pass/No Drive law defines Academic Deficiency as a “student who does not have passing grades in at least four (4) courses, or the equivalent of four courses, in the preceding semester.” A student with nine or more unexcused absences in a single semester (including absences due to out-of-school suspensions) is considered non-compliant.
Parking Permits
You must meet the requirements to be issued a permit. Parking Permit will be issued on the day of registration on a first come-first serve basis, beginning with seniors.
Students may go online to www.ryle.boone.kyschools.us to access the parking contract. On the day of scheduling, the contract must be properly completed and you must show the
following to receive a permit: 1. Valid Driver’s license
2. Contract filled out and signed by student and parent
3. Complete car information: year, make, model and plate #.
