Last week our 5th-8th grade students competed in the district UIL competition. After months of preparation, we are proud to share these results with our community. We are also happy to share that we ended up in second place overall - we are super proud of all of our students and their sponsors!
The Grinch stopped by our classroom today! Kindergarten was so excited!
🎄🎅🎁 Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays from Rochelle ISD! 🎁🎅🎄
We hope you and your family are enjoying this wonderful holiday season! As we celebrate, we invite all our elementary students and families to take part in our Holiday Reading Challenge! 📚✨
Reading is not only a fun and relaxing activity, but it also brings many academic benefits. It's a perfect opportunity to take a break from video games and spend time together as a family. Parents, let’s make reading a priority this holiday season and share the joy of a good book with your little ones! 📖💫
A special thank you to our librarian, Camryn Holden, who has created an Amazon Wish List to help stock our library with new books that all our kids are asking for! If you're feeling generous this season, please consider purchasing a book that speaks to you, and it will be delivered directly to the Rochelle ISD library. 📚🛍️
Here's the Amazon Wish List link: Amazon Wish List 📦
Let's make this season bright with the gift of reading! ✨🎄

Join us for tonight's Christmas music program 🎅
This Thursday (December 19), our campus will be practicing the crisis drill as well as the evacuation drill and reunification drill. Our teachers and staff will meet this week to discuss our plans to prepare for these drills. Over the last two years, our district has invested a great amount of resources into enhancing our campus security systems. Given this, threats should not be able to enter into the campus with the security systems we have in place. After we complete the crisis drill, our students will be escorted to the new gym and we will leave campus for the district’s NEW designated reunification site at the Heart of Texas Events Center. The address for the Heart of Texas Events Center is 804 San Angelo HWY, Brady, TX 76825.
***NOTE THAT THE REUNIFICATION SITE HAS CHANGED TO THE HEART OF TEXAS EVENTS CENTER***
Parents can pick up their students from the Heart of Texas Events center starting at 10:15AM on Thursday. To help with the flow of traffic and keep the area safe, we are asking parents to not arrive before 10:15AM. Students that are not picked up will be taken back to campus at 11:30AM. Once back on campus, high school students that drive (and their siblings if they transport younger siblings) will be able to leave campus. All other students will eat lunch on campus and can be picked up anytime between 11:45AM and 12:15PM from the cafeteria. Our buses will depart from campus at approximately 12:15PM. Our teachers and staff, as we have always done, will debrief the drills when we return to campus and will work to make modifications that enhance our crisis and evacuation procedures. The map shows the routes/roads parents should use in order to pick up their students on Thursday.
