OCTOBER IS NATIONAL BULLY PREVENTION MONTH!
October is National Bullying Prevention Month! This reminds us that students, parents, teachers, and school administrators all play a role. Positive change comes as we begin to emphasize respect and inclusion on campuses across the country.
On Wednesday, October 20th, the ROCORI School District is celebrating Unity Day by wearing orange to take a stand against bullying.
WEAR and SHARE ORANGE to come together in one giant message uniting our nation for kindness, acceptance, and inclusion, and even the world, to visibly show that we believe no child should ever experience bullying.

Please be aware that November 8th is a non-student contact day at ROCORI Schools. Our parent / teacher conferences at ROCORI Secondary School this fall will happen again in a flexible format to provide more opportunities to meet with families. Teachers will be making contacts home and offering an invitation to meet virtually, via phone call, or in person. If you would like to meet, we will schedule a meeting that works for your family.
