We hope you and your family are safe and doing well. We are pleased to inform you that Rock Point Community School will resume its regular schedule on Friday, September 18, 2026.
As we return to school, please review these important transportation and safety updates:
🔹 Excused Absences Due to Road Conditions
Students who live in areas affected by severe road damage, flooding, or extreme mud conditions will be excused from school. While many of these students have already been identified, we ask families to contact the school office to ensure their child's absence is properly recorded as excused.
🔹 Inclement Weather Bus Stops Only
All school buses will operate exclusively at designated inclement weather bus stops. Please plan accordingly and meet the bus at the approved location closest to your area.
🔹 Travel Safety Reminder
For the safety of our students, families, and staff, please do not travel on severely damaged roads or attempt to drive through flowing or standing water when transporting students to or from bus stops.
Please use extreme caution when traveling tomorrow morning and allow extra time for changing road conditions. The safety of our school community remains our highest priority.
Thank you for your continued partnership, patience, and cooperation as we work together to keep our students and community safe.
Sincerely,
RPCS Administration
A new date has not yet been determined. We will share an update with the community once it is rescheduled.
Thank you for your understanding.
