Annual Stakeholder Report
Annual Stakeholder Report
Schools in the Alpine District share an annual stakeholder report as a way to communicate openly with their communities. This report provides a snapshot of new or noteworthy aspects of the school, information about ways to be involved, details related to how state School LAND Trust funds are utilized at Rocky Mountain, as well as our school priorities and areas of focus for the year. A paper copy of the report is being sent home to each family through their family representative (the youngest student attending Rocky Mountain). We invite you to take a few moments to review the report and stay connected to the work we are doing together to support our students. A digital copy of the report is available via the link below:
