RFJSHS has several opportunities to help and support our students!!
Are you fluent in any of these languages? We would love to provide our on-line learners more opportunities to practice their emerging skills in: American Sign Language, French, German and Latin.
Do you want to be part of the decision-making process at the school? Learn more about our Parent Accountability Committee!
Do you consider yourself “techy”? Are you familiar with networks, can you troubleshoot chrome books and can you easily work your way through a variety of software platforms? We are HRING for an Assistant Technology Director. https://www.applitrack.com/Rockyfordk12/onlineapp/
Do you enjoy maintenance and cleaning and possess these skills? We are HIRING for a flex-custodian.

Please call and chat with Mrs. Robinson, Principal, if you have any questions about any of these opportunities.

WPS & JIS*** Parents, during morning drop off and after school dismissal, help us keep ALL students safe. Please slow down in ALL school zones and follow the traffic signs. WPS, the North doors are for students and staff to enter only. If you need to bring your child in personally, please enter through the front doors and check in with the office. At Parent drop off/pick-up, please have your child exit/enter through the passenger side door; we do not want them going in between cars. Your child's safety is our biggest concern.

Dear RFSD Parents/Guardians, we want to remind you to download the RFSD app to your mobile devices, if you have not done so already. In an effort to improve communication from the school district, we are using a new tool called Rooms which is part of the app. Parents/Guardians can use Rooms to message teachers all in one location for all of your students' classes, regardless of grade level or content area. If you have trouble connecting to Rooms, please contact either Mara Romero at 719-254-7669 or Tami Thomas at 719-254-7423.
