I wanted to make sure everyone knows that D Wing at RMS was not sitting empty. We had seven classrooms being used. We have moved seven teachers into traveling Unified Arts teachers, which then allows D wing classrooms to take over those classrooms. So, RMS is in the midst of that double switch.

Gonic School
We have sent out the Honeywell Instant Alert for school cancellation at Gonic School for December 11, 2107. There is still snow on the back roof. Based on the recommendation of the structural engineers, we are worried about students in the building with any snow load on the roof.
Rochester Child Care will be available for daytime care tomorrow, if your child goes to before or after school care with them. Drop off is at the back of the Community Center between the Head Start and Health and Human Services Staff entrance.
I will have additional updates later this evening.
Meeting time adjustment on December 13th
The meeting at McClelland School on December 13th will be in two phases. I will begin at 5 p.m. for anyone that wants to come early and to help elementary band parents. I will then start the same presentation at 6 p.m. I hope this helps a little with the schedule.
I should have additional posts this afternoon. I will try to put the most important information in one post.
FAQ
Here is the information letter that was sent home December 8, 2017.
Gonic Letter #2 12-8-17-2n2biqz
We have had a few questions that I thought it might be helpful to answer.
Lunch Questions: At this time, we are planning to provide lunch delivered to Gonic School, prepared by the current Gonic staff. The week of December 18th will probably be cold lunch, with logistics completed for delivering hot meals starting January 2nd.
3 to 5 students at RMS will use the Middle School cafeteria. They will have Middle School options, but will only be charged elementary prices. They should be eating around 12:30 which is the same time they currently eat at Gonic School.
Breakfast will probably a bag lunch provided and eaten in the classroom at both locations. I would remind everyone that breakfast is free for students. Please take advantage of this option.
Bus Questions: All students will ride their normal buses from the same pick up location. Students in grade 3 to 5 will remain on the bus and go to the Middle School. If your child is a walker in grades 3 to 5, we will run a bus from Gonic School leaving at 8:25 a.m. going directly to the Middle School. Times may change after we meet with the bus company next week. At this time, parent drop off would be at Gonic and RMS.
