Principal's Post
Our first "C day" was a success! Please talk with your child about the Big Life Journal Lesson they did yesterday. See a few pictures below from our Group A students.
Please be sure your child is working on their Remote Day. This includes taking an attendance survey each day in each class to be counted "present" on the days they are working from home. If you have questions please email one of your child's teachers.
Lastly, September 17th, we will host a Virtual Open House for our Face to Face students. You will be able to Zoom / Google Meet with your child's teacher to learn about each class. The evening will begin with a welcome by grade level prior to meeting each teacher. Access to the Zoom will be located in your child's Homebase Canvas course under the "Today Button". The schedule for the evening is below.
Best Regards,
Heather Andrus

Free Breakfast and lunch for ALL Students
Due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and the resulting hardships placed on families, the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) has granted us the ability to feed all students for free. The Emergency Seamless Summer Option program, or SSO, has been approved to allow all enrolled students to receive a free lunch and breakfast every day. This program has been extended through December 31, 2020, or until federal funds run out. Once the program ends we will continue our participation in the National School Lunch Program in which students pay based off of their meal status. We will begin serving free meals starting on Tuesday, September 8.
For families who have added funds their K12 Payment Center meal pay accounts, you have the option to request a refund or leave funds in the account so you're ready when the free meals program ends later this year. To request a refund, please contact our Food Services Department.
School menus, including nutritional information, are available on the district website and the Rock Hill Schools mobile app.
Students in the Virtual Academy are able to order meals for pickup at select locations. For more about online ordering, watch this video.
