Dear Rockridge Families,
Due to the continued extreme heat conditions, Rockridge School District will be canceled Friday, August 25th. Nightly temps have prevented the buildings from cooling off enough to safely resume classes. We welcome cooler weather over the weekend and into next week, so starting Monday, August 28th we will resume full attendance days. Thank you, again, for your understanding, patience, and cooperation.
Marcus Bush
Superintendent

Dear Rockridge Families,
Due to the extreme heat conditions, Rockridge School District will be canceled Wednesday, August 23rd and Thursday, August 24th. We will continue to monitor the temperatures within the buildings to determine if classes will resume Friday, August 25th. While we understand the importance of education and maintaining a consistent schedule, we believe that canceling school during these exceptional circumstances is the most responsible course of action. High temperatures can lead to heat-related illnesses, and we are committed to preventing any potential risks to our students and staff. Thank you for your understanding, patience, and cooperation as we continue to navigate this challenging weather situation together.
Marcus Bush
Superintendent

Rockridge is pleased to announce that all Rockridge students in grades K-12 will be admitted FREE OF CHARGE to regular season home athletic events this year! Rockridge students in JH & HS will be asked to show their Lumen ID on their phone for free admission. Little Rockets in grades K-5 are asked to be accompanied by a parent/guardian and wear Rockridge gear for identification.
This new procedure means the district will no longer sell Family Athletic Passes. The new Individual Adult Athletic Pass pictured below will take its place. The cost is $50.00 per person and will provide individual admission to all home JH & HS regular season athletic events. Individual Adult Athletic Passes are now on sale in the HS Office for $50.00 with cash or check.


Parents who have students cross the street to Andalusia in the morning - PLEASE speak with your students about walking across the street with the crossing guard. Bike riders are required to walk their bikes across. Thank you for this important safety matter.


Attention JH & HS Parents - Please stay in the lot on the NORTH SIDE of the guard rail (between the Bus Barn & the School) when dropping off and picking up JH/HS students. The driveway directly in front of the HS is reserved for BUSES ONLY. Thank you!


The network will be shut down this afternoon (8/16/2023) at 4 PM for network maintenance. Service will be restored following completion of the necessary maintenance.

School Starts Tomorrow!
Please keep bus safety in mind EVERY DAY!!
