School Board Meetings
Rock Hill Schools will begin streaming school board business meetings through a link on the district's website. The link can now be found under Board of Trustees under "District Information" and in "Quick Links" on the front page of our district website.

The district will monitor the site for several months to determine how many people are watching to determine if this is something that should be continued. The district will also continue to tape business meetings of the board for airing on the Education Access Channel, Cable 114.
Business meetings of the school board (those that will be streamed) are on the fourth Monday of each month, beginning at 6:00 p.m.
