RRGSD Alert: Based on what we were instructed by the Governor’s Office and the Department of Public Instruction, our highest priorities were then, and still are, to make sure that all of our students are fed. We will continue to do that Monday through Friday from 10 to noon at both Belmont and Manning Elementary Schools.
We’re working on a remote learning plan. We will have more on that plan next week until then we ask that you visit our RRGSD Instructional Services website for the “Resources for Learning” page. There you can find digital resources for students in Pre-K through 12 in all subject areas for enrichment. So far these missed days are considered teacher workdays so NO grades are being taken at this time.
Thanks for your patience and understanding.
The COVID-19 pandemic is unlike any event we have ever seen, forcing all of us to make countless decisions that have no precedent.

At this point, parents/families may wonder what they should do to help students academically. The quickest answer is encourage your child to read because reading is so important for all academic areas. We've created a new page devoted to a list of resources that parents can use for Learning at Home. #KidsAreOurCustomers

Parent/Student Alert: Roanoke Rapids Graded Schools will be closed starting Monday March 16, 2020 through at least March 30th in accordance with the emergency declaration from the Governor in response to the circumstances surrounding COVID-19 (Coronavirus). This includes Roanoke Rapids Early College High School.
We are also in the process of determining if we can provide school nutrition for our students. This information will be shared in the coming days.
While we were hopeful to remain open, we must comply with these directives. All campuses will be open on Monday to allow staff ONLY to retrieve items they may need.

Students helping students: Members of the RRHS Science National Honor Society created science fair-type projects to share with 4th and 5th graders at our RRGSD elementary schools this week to get students interested and excited about science.
