Attention Elementary Parents/Guardians: We will be having our Back to School Night on Monday, August 26th from 5:00 to 6:00pm. Come see your child's classroom and enjoy a refreshment.

All Rocky Ford Elementary Parents/Guardians: With the hot weather upon us, we wanted to remind you that we still need to follow the student dress code. Remember the length of shorts needs to be two inches upon the knee and tank top straps need to be at least two fingertips in width. Thank you for your support.

The Rocky Ford School District Central Offices will be moving to the new K-12 building this October. Our current office is decorated with many pieces of beautiful student art from the 1980’s & early 1990’s. Because our new space is small, we need to re-home the art. Please look through the list of artists and call us at 719-254-7423 if you would like to take possession of your art piece or a relative’s art piece.
