Just a friendly reminder that there is NO SCHOOL on Thursday, November 11 as we recognize Veterans Day. We are asking both staff and students who are able to wear their RED, WHITE, and BLUE on Wednesday, November 10 in honor of our Veterans and their years of service.
Food Drive Success
Thank you to all the families who participated in our PTO's annual Thanksgiving Food Drive. As you can see below it was a huge success. All donations will be delivered to St. Joseph's Food Pantry and local families.
At 9:00am students are allowed out of their cars and buses and we begin our instructional day shortly thereafter. With that, it is important that we are attending school on time. Consistent tardiness even just 5-minutes multiple times a week will have a negative effect on your child's academics. Please be sure your child is getting to their bus on time and/or in the drop-off line in a timely manner to arrive at school on time.
*Please note as other buildings roll out their new arrival and dismissal times Split Rock's procedures will remain the same.
Split Rock's School Day Hours: 9:00am-3:15pm
