ATTN: Rochester's phone provider Cordial is experiencing a nationwide outage. We are working with a representative to get service restored as quickly as possible. Until that happens if you need to reach your student's building, please send an email to the building secretary. Thank you for your patience as we work with Cordial to restore phone service.

Today is the day! We hope you'll join us for the 7th annual Central Illinois STEM Fair. It's tonight (Wednesday, April 10th) from 6 - 8 PM in the RAC (Rochester Athletic Center)! It's a great day to be a Rocket!

RIS students and families,
In addition to continuing our al-a-carte breakfast options, students now have the choice to purchase a hot meal for breakfast starting today January 9th in the cafeteria.
Our morning drop-off, bus arrivals, and class times will all remain the same. Students arriving prior to 8:00 am will still gather in either the cafeteria (if they'd like to eat) or the gym to sit with their grade levels until the start of the school day.
All breakfast items are optional and the cost for hot breakfast is $1.45.
If you have any questions, contact Michelle Wilhour at Wilhour-Michelle@aramark.com or contact our front office.
We are excited to offer this new service to students and hope that it can relieve some stress for busy families.
It's a great day to be a Rocket!
Sincerely,
Your RIS administration


ALERT: Winter weather is coming. We want families to know what we do to keep students and staff safe when snow starts to fall!
