In response to the corona virus pandemic, the school board decided to end full-day schedules and shift into a half-day schedule. This split weekdays into A & B days, each day with two shifts. On every other Monday, the morning shift attends school for the first four periods of the day. There is a few hours break between the two shifts until the afternoon one begins. These students attend hours five through six. The next day, the morning shift would then take hours five through six, while the afternoon shift takes hours one through four. This format of schedule began in November 2020 and will end in the early days of February 2021.

The Richmond R-XVI School District is proud of its recent (2019) recognition as a Bronze Level School with the U.S. News & World Report.
