Dear students, parents and teachers,

We like to inform you that the parking situation at Rippowam will be very crowded tomorrow. Please allow extra time and be very careful when moving any cars and with your children as the parking lots may be very crowded with many visitors to this event.

The Rippowam Middle School and the Academy of Information Technology and Engineering (A.I.T.E.) are holding a seminar and courses which has in the past attracted over 1,300 people.
There is a morning session from 9:00 am to 10:00 am at the Rippowam Auditorium and afternoon sessions from 12 noon to 4:00 pm at the A.I.T.E School.

Going forward we will also offer you to use a new payment option with PayPal. It's called: "Pay Later".
