Rockridge Schools will be closed tomorrow, February 16, 2023.

Rockridge Families, I’m writing this afternoon because the weather forecast continues to be unpredictable for the morning of Thursday, February 16th. I feel it would be advantageous for families to plan ahead in case we would need to close our school buildings. I will continue to watch the weather forecast as it develops throughout the day and evening. Additionally, we will be out early tomorrow morning traveling our district roads. In the event that school may be canceled, I would make this call no later than 6:00 am on Thursday, February 16th. The message would be sent on multiple platforms to families and staff who are in our system. If you have other family members who would like to be notified, please have them download the Rockridge app. They may download the Rockridge CUSD 300 app under the Apple platform in the App Store or on Android in the Play Store. Sincerely, Perry D. Miller Superintendent of Schools

Please join us for our monthly School Board Meeting tonight at 6:30 PM in the JR High Library. We hope to see you there.
