January 26, 2021 UPDATE
Dear Students, Staff, and Community:
Last night the Rogue River School Board unanimously voted to approve reopening plans for K-12 students that will begin to phase in on February 16, 2021. The District is excited to have more students return to our hallways.
The majority of details on what these plans will look like will be conveyed by building principals. You should receive those communications from the principals before the end of this week.
The next two weeks will be a flurry of detail work at all levels as we prepare for more students and shift our educational model. Here is some important information you should know as you prepare for this shift:
It will take all students, staff, and families working together to make this reopening a success. Please look for more details from each school in the near future.
Sincerely,
Patrick Lee
Superintendent
Rogue River School District #35

January 21, 2021 UPDATE
Dear Community:
To continue to keep you as informed as possible, the following is an update on where the Rogue River School District is at regarding our re-opening plans:
At the regular board meeting on January 19, 2021 the RRSD School Board heard presentations from our school principals regarding plans to re-open to all students. To ensure that they are making the best possible decision for our students and staff, the board has scheduled a special board meeting for January 25, 2021 to gather more information and hear more details about these plans. At that meeting the Board expects to decide when and how the Rogue River School District will expand onsite services to students.
Once that decision is made, the RRSD will work to inform you of all relevant changes as soon as possible. Communications of this sort can take time to coordinate and prepare, so we may need a day or two to get this out to you. Once the District has shared the overview of our plans, school principals will communicate with families to share details relevant to the students attending their schools.
Please be on the lookout for more communication by the middle of next week.
Sincerely,
Patrick Lee
Superintendent

January 11, 2021 - Update
Dear Community:
This is a brief update on where the Rogue River School District stands in regards to expanding our onsite learning with students.
When Governor Brown announced on December 23, 2020 that the decision making for school reopening would now be put in the hands of local school districts, she also cautioned that districts should consider waiting until after January 19, 2021 to make any changes. The reason the Governor cautioned schools on making any firm plans before January 19, 2021 is because she expects to release updated rules for safely operating schools on that day.
Shortly after her announcement, the Oregon School Boards Association gave superintendents legal guidance stating that schools opening while still in the red zone according to the current metrics, would not have liability coverage. Having that liability protection is crucial to protecting school districts from potential lawsuits. All schools in Jackson County are currently in the red zone.
In Rogue River, we are carefully planning to expand our offerings of onsite learning in some form to our students beginning February 1, 2021. The new rules released on January 19, will play a major role in deciding what our expanded onsite instruction looks like on February 1.
Because of the uncertainties about how the guidance might change on January 19, 2021, and because of our uncertainty about having liability coverage, we are not announcing our reopening plans until we are more confident that we can actually follow through with them.
We are optimistic we will be able to bring more students back on campus in February. We expect to give some form of update with more details on the status of our reopening plans on or around January 22, 2021.
Thank you,
Patrick Lee
Superintendent

Dear Community,
There is much distress, discussion, and debate around the topic of racism in our country today. Current events are shining a bright light across our nation, exposing a problem that continues to exist. Because of the importance of this topic in our current time, I feel it important to affirm to our community that The Rogue River School District stands against racism of any kind.
The Rogue River School District is committed to loving and respecting each and every student that walks through its doors, regardless of the color of their skin or any other perceived label, descriptor, or identifier that may apply. We state this so that our students and our community will have no doubt as to our stance.
Respectfully,
Patrick Lee
Superintendent
Rogue River School District

TEACHER APPRECIATION
In the smoothest of times, teachers display their professionalism and commitment in a myriad of ways. They work hard, inspire, challenge, and go above and beyond to help our students. These are anything but the smoothest of times. In these times of challenge and opportunity, great teachers do all of the above and go even further with their efforts to be flexible, committed, and relentless in their desire to help our student body. From what I have heard, the teachers of the RRSD are doing a tremendous job.
Thank you for having the intelligence, commitment, and flexibility to learn in just a few days how to change the way you teach. I hope your students and families appreciate you as much as I do for all that you have done to try and make this transition an opportunity to show just how committed you are to building relationships and connections with our students.
Thank you for all you do!
Teachers are heroes!
