If a class has other specific needs, the teachers will share that information with students.
Below is a list of suggested calculators for math classes. We do not require students to have a calculator for their math class. There are free online options for working at home and our math teachers have calculators for students to use in the classroom.
FALL ATHLETIC REGISTERATIONS The athletics registration link is open. Our registration software was recently bought out by a new company/website and the process to register will look a little different. Please be patient as this is new for everyone.
All RETURNING & NEW athletes will need to create an account on this new registration platform.
Picture Day is coming on Wednesday, August 13 (Grades 10-12 only) and Thursday, August 14 (9th Grade only).
All students will need to get their picture taken before they can pick up their schedule! You can place your order on mylifetouch.com. Order before midnight on Picture Day to get FREE shipping! There will be flyers available on picture day for families paying with cash or check.
Orders after Picture Day must be placed online only on mylifetouch.com.

"By challenge, I mean doing things that aren’t easy. Challenge means being pushed, stretched, and sometimes uncomfortable. By support, I mean having people around you who help you complete tasks and achieve goals. Support means feeling like you matter, that you're not alone, and that someone believes in you."

As the 2024–2025 school year comes to a close, I want to take a moment to reflect on some of the highlights from the past ten months. This list doesn’t capture everything great that happened in our schools, but I hope it gives you a sense of the extraordinary work we’ve done together. Everyone connected to Rochester Public Schools (RPS) should feel proud of what we’ve accomplished—and even more excited about what lies ahead.
