Rockford Public Schools Making End-Of-Year Decisions

Press release from Rockford Public Schools:

4/22/2020

RPS 205 parents/guardians, students and staff,

We are working through details now about how to best close out this school year. This extended closure is new to all of us, and we know you have questions. We plan to find the safest solutions for our students, staff and families. We're considering several plans: how students can retrieve personal items from their classrooms and lockers, what textbook and Chromebook return will look like, and how to host a safe event to recognize our incredible seniors, for example.

Please give us some time to develop the best possible answers. We're working with our principals, administrators, teachers and students to make sure we find good – and safe – solutions for everyone involved. We plan to share more information during the week of May 4 with as many details as possible.

In the meantime, please continue with Remote Learning lessons and connecting with teachers and staff in the coming weeks. Thank you for your patience.

Sincerely, Ehren Jarrett Superintendent
