In an effort to remain consistent with our COVID policy, no school deliveries will be allowed for Valentine's Day 2021. We appreciate your cooperation in our efforts to keep our school a safe place for all students and staff.
All sophomores will be taking the Pre ACT on Wednesday, Jan 27th from 8:20-12. Virtual students are asked to please be at the school a little before 8:20 and they may check out when the testing session is complete. If a student needs to stay all day they will be attending their regular afternoon classes. This test is used as part of our school's ICAP requirement. If a parent/guardian has concerns or questions please either email me soffineer@rolandschools.org or call the school.
Driving with too many friends in the car is considered distracted driving and can have deadly consequences for our teen drivers and our community. Thanks to the Brooks / Thompson Farmers agency for bringing these important Safety messages to our school.

Roland Public Schools would like to thank the town of Roland for donating money to purchase 12 Oasis touchless water bottle fillers. The high school received three, the middle school received two and the elementary buildings received two each. RPS was also able to install a bottle filler in the high school gym, the middle school gym as well as the Ag building. These bottle fillers will help students and faculty stay healthy and hydrated and will reduce the amount of plastic bottles being thrown away. Thank you again to the town of Roland!
