Posts for New Students
Welcome! Welcome to new and returning students at RRC Polytech, and new and returning blog readers! While the new school year started a few weeks ago, we waited for this post for two reasons:
- So we could finish our Summer of Reading Blog series posts
- To give new students some time to find the blog!
But now that you’re here, welcome! Our (digital) gift to you is this post – a collection of our most helpful posts for new students.

You probably knew we were going to include this didn’t you?! This wrap-up post summarizes why we think students should use Read&Write, and links to all of the posts included in the blog series. Read&Write is a resource available to all students (and staff) for free!
Learn more about Read&Write and different ways to use it to help with reading on the Summer of Reading with Read&Write – Wrap Up blog post!
