Good Morning Rochester Intermediate School Students and Staff!

Today is Tuesday, January 9th , 2024

Please stand for the Pledge: 

I pledge allegiance, to the flag, of the United States of America, and to the Republic, for which it stands, one nation, under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.

And now for a moment of reflection

Happy Birthday

Bus Announcements

Bus #11 and Bus #23  is a double route today.

Just a reminder that  RIS double bus riders will go to the elementary campus to wait until their bus arrives.   

6th grade Volleyball players need to ride buses 2, 16 or 27 to RJHS for their game today.  Please tell the bus driver that you are going to the JH for Volleyball.

6th grade wrestlers also need to ride bus 2, 16 or 27  to the Jr High to get the bus for their meet in Porta today.

Students who enter through the gym in the morning need to make sure they follow the large blue line.  It is very wet outside and this will cut down on the mess!

If you didn’t see breakfast this morning, the cafeteria staff had hot biscuits and gravy, french toast sticks, bacon, egg and cheese biscuits, fruity pebble donuts and cocoa puff donuts in the cafeteria.  When you come in tomorrow, check it out!

Today’s lunch menu includes: 

  1. Corn Dog

Transportation Changes

All transportation changes must be submitted to the office no later than 2:00pm.  Please call the office at 217-498-6215 or email your changes to Mrs. Howie at chowie@rochester3a.net or Mrs. Lovett at clovett@rochester3a.net.  Any request for transportation changes past 2:00 pm cannot be accepted.  Thank you for your cooperation!

Parent Pick-up:

For parent pick-up at the end of the day, we prefer the line system.  All parents should remain in their vehicles and follow the pick-up line around and to the front of the building.  You may also choose to park in the spots in the parking lot. It is our preference that you use the line system, however if you choose to park, please come to the front of the building and escort your student to the vehicle safely. Under no circumstances should students be walking across the parking lot unescorted.  Thank you for your help with this!

Lunch Balances

The low lunch balance alerts have been reactivated for all families.  You will get an alert when your lunch balance is below $5.00.  If you choose to shut off the alert, you will no longer get any school announcements.
