Hazel Health
We’re launching our health services program for this school year, and we want to make sure your family has access to these services all year long. Our district is hosting a Consent for Care Drive to ensure 100% of families learn about our student health services from Hazel Health. With Hazel, students can immediately speak with a Hazel doctor right from school or at home.
On-demand health services include:
Medical treatment: For stomach aches, headaches, sprained ankles, asthma concerns, and everything in between
Medication: Prescriptions written or over-the-counter provided at school when needed
Coordination: With family physician and return to school communications
Parents - Please sign the Consent for Care form to ensure your child has access to these services: my.hazel.co/rochester3a
If you have already completed the form, thank you! You can help us reach 100% of families this week by reminding your fellow Rochester CUSD 3A families to opt-in to this service during our drive.
Future Cheerleading Clinic Update:
The future cheerleading performance for tonight has been rescheduled for the home football game on Friday, October 15th.
More information to come about a refresher clinic prior to the new game date and/or opportunity to sign up to participate if you missed it the first time around.
High School Homecoming Parade
This year’s Rochester High School Homecoming Parade will be on Wednesday, September 22 at 5:30 pm. The parade will start at the Rochester Baptist Church on State Street, will turn left on Main Street, and turn right on North Walnut and will end in the back parking lot at the high school. This year’s theme is “Fairytales”. If you are interested in participating in the parade or need additional information, please contact Deena Powell at (217) 498-9761 ext. 3122 during the school day or you can email at dpowell@rochester3a.net. Parade entries should fill out a form at this link https://bit.ly/3fvvVG7. All parade entries need to have adult supervision and will not include political entries. We would love to see area businesses participate in our parade! There will be monetary prizes for the best parade entries that follow the parade theme displaying school spirit. (Businesses are not eligible for prizes)
Kindergarten Parents: Kindergarten Parents: The fairytale for the Kindergarten students will be There's No Place Like Home (The Wizard of Oz). If you have any questions, please contact your child’s teacher (not the office).
ALL sports/activities/businesses not directly connected to the Rochester Schools will need to fill out a Waiver of Liability Form and return to Deena Powell dpowell@rochester3a.net no later than 3:15 pm on Tuesday, September 21. (Just take a picture of your completed form with your phone camera and email to me) The head/owner of each group (President, Owner, etc) can sign the waiver for the entire group if you have your own liability insurance. Example: the head of JFL will sign for all the JFL entries. I do NOT need waivers signed from each individual parent unless there is not an individual who is able to sign for the entire group. This form takes liability away from the Rochester School District. Click here for Waiver of Liability Form
