RMS staff and parents,
As many of you are aware, State Superintendent Hofmeister called an emergency board meeting this afternoon of the state board of education. The state board just voted to cease school and school activities for all public schools in the state of Oklahoma until April 6th.
In the next few days, I will be giving you additional information concerning such items as meals for students, community supports, and guidance on continuing your childโs learning during this time.
I appreciate the continued support of Rocky Mountain school. We are blessed with a wonderful community.
If you have any questions or concerns, you may reach out to me personally by texting or calling my cell phone, 918-797-0318.
May God bless each of us during this time.
RMS parents and community.........Due to the warm temperatures, they are cancelling the blood drive for the remainder of the evening. Thank you for your understanding.
