Nov 28th weekly update
Good morning Rockwood families,
I hope you had a chance to meet your child’s teacher to discuss their progress including strengths and areas for improvement. Please contact your child’s teacher if you were unable to attend this past week to set up a time for an interview.
Tues. November 29-We have the Ross Symphonic Band and Jazz Band 9:30 am Period 2 for all of our students to enjoy.
Congratulations to Mrs. McCabe who has been promoted in our Board to the Vice-Principal list. Mrs. McCabe is an outstanding educator and she will be greatly missed by the students, staff and parents when she is promoted to a Vice Principal position. We wish her all the best in her future and know she will continue to have a great impact on students. We are fortunate to have her at Rockwood until then and will share when we hear more about a change.
