Rochelle ISD

Kindergarten's senior helper Allie Penn and Mrs. Penn gave a sweet gift for our kinder friends.

Don’t forget to stop by tonight for a picture with Santa… and you might even catch the Grinch! 😃

Oh, Christmas tree! Kindergarten's incentive for finishing their IXL chart.

We look forward to seeing all of our musicians and their families this evening at the Christmas Program. We have decided to host both the elementary performances as well as the middle school and high school band performances in the new gym this evening. The elementary portion begins at 6PM and the middle school and high school portion starts at 7PM. We hope to see you there!

This Thursday (December 18), our campus will be practicing the crisis drill as well as the evacuation drill and reunification drill. Over the last five years, our district has invested a great amount of resources into enhancing our campus security systems. Given this, threats should not be able to enter into the campus with the security systems we have in place. After we complete the crisis drill, our students will be escorted to the new gym and we will leave campus for the district’s designated reunification site at the Heart of Texas Events Center. The address for the Heart of Texas Events Center is 804 San Angelo HWY, Brady, TX 76825.

***NOTE THAT THE REUNIFICATION SITE IS THE HEART OF TEXAS EVENTS CENTER***

Parents can pick up their students from the Heart of Texas Events center starting at 3:00PM on Thursday. To help with the flow of traffic and keep the area safe, we are asking parents to not arrive before 3:00PM. Students that are not picked up will be taken back to campus at the end of the reunification drill. Once back on campus, high school students that drive (and their siblings if they transport younger siblings) will be able to leave campus. Buses will depart from campus at approximately 4:20PM. Our teachers and staff, as we have always done, will debrief the drills when we return to campus and will work to make modifications that enhance our crisis and evacuation procedures.
