RFSD Weekly Community UPDATE
May 28th, 2012
From Judy Haptonstall
As I complete my last week with the school district, I want to say thank you for a memorable 23 years. It has been an honor to part of an organization that has had such a lasting impact on the lives of our children and an honor to be part of communities who continue to provide support for the work of the district.
A Year of Celebrations!
Congratulations to Roaring Fork School District Graduates!
Bridges High School Graduation at 4:00 at the Bridges Center on June 1st
Graduation Ceremonies at 10:00 at Roaring Fork High School, 1:00 at Glenwood Springs High School, and 4:00 at Basalt High School on June 2nd
All district staff and community members, along with parents, family members and friends are encouraged to attend the graduation ceremonies. They are a great celebration of the culmination of 13 years of time spent learning, making friends, and creating lasting memories. It is also a time for young men and women to look to the future for whatever next steps they may choose. Our best wishes go with you to make a positive difference!
