After speaking with multiple members of the Rochelle ISD community and reflecting on all available data, the Rochelle ISD has decided to cancel school on Monday, February 3, 2025, in order to provide students, teachers, and school community members the opportunity to get well and to offer our staff the opportunity to thoroughly clean our campus. The junior high basketball games scheduled for Monday, February 3, 2025, against Olfen have been canceled. We will see everyone back at school on Tuesday.
We want to wish Trey Evans the best of luck at the San Angelo Stock Show this week!

The Rochelle ISD calendar committee has two draft calendars for review before being adopted by the Rochelle ISD Board of Trustees next month. Due to a recent change in the student attendance accounting handbook from the TEA, we must modify our calendar a bit this upcoming year to meet state requirements. The calendar committee feels that the four-day school week has been effective and has produced two calendars based on the four-day week model.
2025-2026 Draft Calendar Option 1: The first day of school is August 4, 2025 and the last day of school is May 27, 2026 (this last day of school is three days later than our previous calendars). The school day in option 1 will be the same length as it is this year. All other breaks and holidays would be the same as this current year.
2025-2026 Draft Calendar Option 2: The first day of school is August 4, 2025 and the last day of school is May 21, 2026. The school day in option 2 will be ten minutes longer per day than it is this year. All other breaks and holidays would be the same as this current year.
We are asking for feedback on both of these calendars from our community at https://tinyurl.com/risdcalendar. Please contact Dr. Fields if you have any questions or feedback at mfields@rochelleisd.net.
