Welcome to the 2022-23 school year! I consider it a true privilege to serve as your Superintendent of Schools. I am honored and excited to start this next chapter of my career in Rochester, a community that is focused on providing a high-quality learning experience for every student.

To ensure students have access to instruction and feel successful, we are focusing on every student attending school regularly. Chronic absenteeism negatively impacts learning. Attendance is a top priority, second only to student safety.

The Rochester School District is committed to providing a safe environment for students, staff, families and visitors. Our district’s administrators coordinate our Emergency Response Plan, working closely with local, county and state emergency responders and public health officials to ensure we are well prepared!
