Good Morning Rochester Intermediate School Students and Staff!
Today is Wednesday, January 10th , 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
No Birthdays today
Bus Announcements
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.
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!
Congratulations to all RIS classes for showing positive behavior in the RIS library last semester. Many entries were placed into the Library Whisper Wheel and 3 classes have been randomly drawn for library pizza parties. The 3 winning classes are: Mrs. Callahan’s 4th grade class, Miss Ross’s 5th grade class, and Mrs. Wycoff’s 6th grade class.
Pizza parties with these 3 winning classes will be arranged through Mrs. Ramsey..
Today’s lunch menu includes:
Hamburger Horseshoe
Italian Salad
Chicken Tenders

Remember, “Rockets RISE Together” by demonstrating:

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.
