FFA Virtual Fundraiser

The Rockridge FFA Chapter would love your support by participating in our Fall fundraiser! Fundraising is more important than ever this year! Our inability to conduct some of our staple Fall fundraisers, as done in years past, has not discouraged us, but rather pushed us to get creative and overcome this year's challenges. Luckily, 4 Seasons reached out to us with this opportunity for a "No Touch," completely virtual, online fundraiser.

Please follow the link below to access our online store that allows you to purchase 200+ award-winning American made products that are unique to 4 Seasons Fund Raising while providing financial support to our chapter. (There is a "donation only" option on the site as well!) If you have family/friends who are members of the chapter, please reach out to them and ask them for their student ID code, as we are able to track member sales. If you do not know any members, or would just like to support the chapter, use the code below. Thank you in advance for supporting the Rockridge FFA chapter! Go Rockets!

Reopening Survey Response Summary

The Rockridge School District is committed to the health and safety of our children and staff members. Due to the growing concern of the coronavirus (COVID-19), we would like to provide you with the current information available to the District at this time.

There is no current vaccine for coronavirus at this time. The preventive measures that you, your family and our district can take to reduce the spread of both the flu and coronavirus are:

• Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds

• Cover your coughs and sneezes with a tissue or your upper arm or elbow

• Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth

• Stay at home when you are sick, except to get medical care. Remember, students should not return to school until they are fever-free without the use of medication for 24 hours.

• Avoid close contact with people who are sick

• Clean and disinfect frequently touched objects and surfaces, such as hand railings, light switches, and doorknobs

The Rockridge School District, with the assistance of our cleaning contractor FBG has implemented extra precautionary measures to help disinfect areas in our schools and school buses. We will continue the precautionary cleaning methods for the remainder of the school year.

If you have questions about the coronavirus, please contact your family doctor, school nurse or visit the following websites: Center for Disease Control Prevention: https://www.cdc.gov/ or Illinois Department of Public Heath: http://www.dph.illinois.gov/

The District will closely monitor the recommendations regarding the coronavirus and will provide updates, if there are significant changes in the recommendations/guidelines for schools.
