Attention parents of Rock County Junior High and High School students. Rock County Junior High and High School will have school on Tuesday, March 5 and Wednesday, March 6, however, students will not report to the school building. Students will be reporting to their classes from their school issued devices while staying off the school grounds these two days due to construction work being done to the entry of the high school building. All students are still expected to report to class these days and absences will count against your child(ren) if they do not. If you do not feel you have appropriate internet at home to accommodate this, please reach out and we can make plans for your child(ren) to attend school in the grade school building in order to have the internet needed to login to class these two days. We apologize for the inconvenience but we are excited about the progress on the construction project at the high school.

It's Official! We will be hosting the Class D4 Track Districts at Rock County High School. If you would be interested in helping out with the meet, please contact Mrs. Fischer.

Sophomores who are/might be interested in taking dual credit classes next year need to know or have their SSN and mailing address this Friday (23rd). You will start the application process to Northeast Community College which won't take long if you have the required information.

Dear Parent, Rock County Public Schools and Keya Paha County School, in participation with the Holt/Boyd Community Connections Collaborative, will be sponsoring Shelly Donahue on February 20th. As co-creator of a national abstinence and relationship curriculum called WAIT Training (Why Am I Tempted), she has addressed thousands of young people, parents, and teachers in 48 states and 7 foreign countries over the past 20 years in public and private school districts. Her most recent international teaching experience was in China, where she taught as a guest college professor. Previous to her role with WAIT Training, she was a Health Education and PE teacher for 19 years; coaching volleyball, basketball, and track & field at the high school level in the mountains of Colorado. One of Shelly’s significant accomplishments, in a practical sense, comes from her service as the Abstinence Education Director on the staff of the Weld County Health Department for five years. During her tenure there, she provided abstinence education teaching and training to schools, churches, youth-service agencies, and medical providers. If you would like to know more, please visit her website “www.shellydonahue.net”. For our public-school assemblies, she focuses on the facts and does not include the faith based practices. Keya Paha County School, grades 7-12 will join Rock County High School and Junior High School on February 20th with groups attending their own sessions. The seventh & eighth grade students will attend their own 45-minute session. Ninety-minute sessions will be provided separately for girls and boys in grades 9-12. If you have any concerns about your child attending this presentation, please reach out to Mrs. Fischer or Mrs. Ebert by Monday, February 19th. Sincerely, Mrs. Ebert - Principal Mrs. Fischer - Dean of Students

Due to the 10am late start, we are moving the State Wrestling Sendoff time to 11:45 to accommodate the bell schedule.
