RPS families: A quick reminder that there will be no school for students on TUESDAY, November 7, due to a PD day for staff.
🌟 Strong schools are the cornerstone of a vibrant community! 🌟
The Rochester area is a great place to live and raise a family. We have excellent
schools, dedicated staff, highly engaged parents/caregivers, and a generous
community.
Consistently rated as one of the best cities to live in the U.S., Rochester is known
worldwide for its history in healthcare, spirit of innovation in healthcare and
technology, and its dedication to education for learners of all ages.
The technology levy referendum is crucial for keeping the Rochester Public School District competitive. By providing $10.1 million annually for technology, it allows the district to preserve current class sizes by redirecting $7 million back to the general fund.
Please vote on or before November 7.
