Larry A. Ryle High School
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 2013 was a great group of
students.
Overall, they performed
admirably both in and out of the
classroom. I am very proud of their work
in community service in projects large and
small including Unite to Read, Baskets of
Cheer, Kids Against Hunger, Dragon FLY
Project and many others.
Here are a few of many impressive
accomplishments from the 2012-13
school year:
 Larry A. Ryle High School earned a
Distinguished – Ky. School of Highest
Performance rating from the Kentucky
Department of Education in 2012.
 Larry A. Ryle High School also earned
silver medal status by U.S. News & World
Reports as a top high school in the
United States. We are very proud to be
ranked the 9th best school in the
Kentucky and one of the best in the
country.
 The overall student attendance rate for
the 2012-13 school year was 95.6%, the
highest high school rate in Boone County.
This is a great accomplishment as Ryle is
also the largest high school in the county.
 Twenty-eight
seniors
earned
the
Commonwealth Diploma for their
performance in Advanced Placement
courses.
 The Class of 2013 exceeded $7,500,000 in
academic scholarship offers.
 Ninety-three seniors earned the Career
Passport/Work Ethic diploma from the
Northern
Kentucky Chamber
of
Commerce.
 Starting with the Class of 2014, students
have the opportunity to earn recognition
at graduation by earning one of 3 honors
distinctions: Magna Cum Laude, Summa
Cum Laude, and Cum Laude.
In the 21 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 2013 for Continuing
the Tradition of excellence at our school.
This past year we have worked to identify
and clarify our school’s core beliefs and
expectations by polling our students,
parents, and staff members. Since our
school has a very strong foundation in
achieving excellence in academics and
extra-curricular activities, our goal was to
clarify our existing fundamental beliefs
and expectations for everyone and to
work to find ways to integrate them into
the fabric of everything related to our
school.
The answer to the simple
question of “What words best describe
Ryle and its expectations for students?”
yielded very consistent responses.
-
TRADITION
-
SERVICE
-
RESPONSIBILITY
-
INTEGRITY
-
RESPECT
Therefore, the tradition of Larry A. Ryle
High School is to teach, model, and
exemplify the following traits: Service,
Responsibility, Integrity, and Respect.
To the Classes of 2014, 2015, 2016, and
2017, 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
We are very pleased that the 2013-2014 academic
school year will begin with the implementation of
the PBIS system school-wide. 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.

Summer Reading Program
Please see the Ryle Website for your
mandatory
summer
assignment.
www.ryle.boone.kyschools.us.
This summer marks the 11th 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).

2013 Summer Newsletter
Larry A. Ryle High School
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.

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 #.
4. Verification of eligibility
5. Verification of payment
PARKING PRIVILEGES
*All fees and textbook rental must be paid before applying*
Due to the increased number of students who drive, the SBDM Council has modified the way in which

To Seniors who:
 Have at least a 78% overall average or 1.9 GPA from grades 9-11.

Have not accumulated more than 9 unexcused absences or tardies to school combined in their
junior year, or will lose their pass if 9 are accumulated during their senior year.

All Level IV discipline violators will forfeit parking permit
