Safety is a top priority. We will keep you posted as we receive additional guidance.​Back to School 2020! UPDATE! July 1, 2020Governor Cooper made an announcement today to delay making a decision as to whether NC schools are on Plan A, Plan B, or Plan C. Governor Cooper also shared that any school that is a year around school and starting soon will need to begin the school year working remotely.The RCS Re-Entry Team has been working very hard in planning for all three options (Plan, A, Plan B, and Plan C). We have obtained feedback from students, teachers, and our community. A vision, action plan, goals, and a task list are certainly important, but the reality is this- we know that the most important thing is what we are doing everyday which is working to keep our children ​and staff safe and​​ to give ​our students ​the most optimal learning experience we can in an environment that keeps them safe physically and emotionally. We are the #TheChoiceThatRocks! Thank you so much for your support as we navigate these uncharted waters.​BREAKING NEWS June 30, 2020:GovernorRoy Cooper was expected to announce Wednesday (July 1st) what schools will look like in North Carolina this fall (Plan A, Plan B, Plan C). However, his office said Tuesday night (06-30-2020)he will not make an announcement on how statewide K-12 public schools would open. We will let you know when we have more information.RCS Back to School 2020! Re-Engage! Re-Connect!

Our district will provide you updated information on Thursday nights (once a week) on Back to School 2020 beginning July 2, 2020! We have been working hard on getting input from students, staff, parents, and the community about our return to school in Fall 2020! Governor Cooper has provided guidance on three possible plans,one of which NC schools will be required to follow. On July 1st, the Governor will announce the required plan for all NC schools! Please visit www.rock.k12.nc.us for an infographic and link for more information about our safe return to learn.NC State education and health officials are considering several options for reopening schools in August. They are divided into three categories: Plan A would reopen schools with minimal social distancing and would be implemented if COVID-19 metrics continue to stabilize or move in a positive direction. Plan B would require moderate social distancing and 50 percent student capacity in school buildings. This plan would require us to find a way to modify our schedule so that no more than half our students are in the school building at any given time. We would need to implement face to face staggered days with some remote learning from home. Plan C means there is a significant spread of COVID-19. It would close in-person learning entirely and would require our district to implement remote learning for all students.RCS wants to provide options for our families no matter what plan is selected by the Governor on July 1st. Therefore, we have a Virtual Learning Option Application (click here) for families that you may complete now if you are interested in registering for a virtual learning option no matter what option the Governor s office announces on July 1st. If you are interested in this option: please visit our website at www.rock.k12.nc.us and Facebook page for the survey!Thank you for your support as we all work together as a team to make the new school year a safe return to learn so that we can Re-Engage!

Congratulations to all of our graduates!!!​Back to School 2020! Re-Engage, Re-Connect, Re-Ignite!RCS is being proactive and we have established a Re-Entry Team to think about all the aspects and anticipate re-engaging and re-entry strategies to re-open the school year. Our Re-Entry team is working diligently on safety protocols, social emotional supports for students and staff, school operations, employee considerations, learning strategies, and parent engagement/stakeholder involvement. Our goal is to think about what the students and staff of RCS need as we close and re-open our new school year. As we think about re-engaging, we want to re-connect and re-ignite by developing a proactive plan to meet the academic and social emotional needs for our students and staff!Guidance has been released from NC Department of Health and Human Services (NCDHHS) NC Department of Public Instruction, and NC State Board of Education. Release of these guidelines is appreciated and timely. They offer constructive guidance and suggestions for planning. They also stress that, when all is said and done, it will be up to local school leadership teams and Boards of Education (in consultation with the health department) to make the call on how best to open the 2020-21 school year. They reference an approach from Minimal Spread (Plan A) to Moderate Spread (Plan B) to Significant Spread (Plan C) and require school districts to make draft plans for each scenario. RCS has been working diligently and will continue to do so to create effective plans for reentry in August. We have been working to integrate and adjust a lot of variables and scenarios into the uncertain conditions unique to our community.The safety and well-being of our students and staff are the highest priorities in our reentry plans. We will not place students and employees in learning environments that pose significant health risks. RCS is relying on the latest, most accurate health indicators and assessments to make the decision on how best to reopen schools and classrooms. Our policies and practices will be guided by the Center for Disease Control (CDC), Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS), and county health department recommendations and standards.We appreciate that there is a delicate balance in meeting all of the needs of our community. Schools play a vital role in getting people back to work. In-class instruction enables that to happen. However, if we are choosing to implement either a fully remote learning or hybrid model (staggered approach) to ensure health and safety, then we will aggressively try to bridge the Digital Divide so that all students and families have access to the tools and Internet networks that enable effective remote learning. Our local plans will offer options so that parents can make educational choices that meet the needs of their children. Those plans will be announced in a few weeks.We ask that our stakeholders continue to be patient and practice effective social distancing and personal hygiene precautions so we don t contribute to the spread of Covid-19.
