  • Change Wars!

    The Annual Change Wars going on right now!

    We are collecting change for a Rockwell Family in need.

    It is grade against grade and students against faculty.

    Please send your spare change with your student to school.

    Last year we earned over $1000, this year we are not even close to that.

    Please help us help a Rockwell Family.

    Please contact the Student Government or Ms. Holt for more information.

From the Director

Hello Rockwell Community,

Well, the holidays are upon us and all is well. I look back over the first few months of school and I'm amazed at how much has happened in so short of a time!

In athletics, our girl's volleyball team had a great season and improved so much over the year. We were able to start a cross country club team so that we have a foundation to start competing in our region next year. Our drill team is strong and is ready for their competition season to begin and has supported the school with performances for our student body. Our cheer squad has shown great support for our teams and for our school in so many ways, including pumping our students up at assemblies and pep rallies.

Our drama department placed in a number of areas and represented Rockwell so positively at the Shakespeare Festival in October. They have just finished their first school play for the year and showed what hard work and dedication can accomplish with limited resources. Our music programs continue to improve and will showcase their talents soon in an assembly and night performance.

In the classrooms, our teachers are so committed to success for our students and it shows. The students know that their teachers care about them and will help them achieve their goals. In the school in general, we have worked hard to help every student learn what it means to develop leadership skills, to be kind and respectful, and to work hard for success.

There are so many things I could go on about, but I'll sum it up by saying Rockwell Charter High School continues to improve each day in so many ways. It sure is fun to be a part of it all!

This year our school is preparing for an accreditation visit early next school year. Part of that process is working in focus groups to in seven different areas. Teachers, parents, and students make up the focus groups and each group will meet a couple of times a month after school. The purpose of the groups is to evaluate our school in the given topic area and to analyze what we're doing well, what we could improve, and how we will improve. Parents and students can volunteer to be on any one of the focus group committees and will be a part of the evaluation process. Input from our parents and community is crucial for school improvement. The seven focus groups are:

1. Curriculum Development
2. Quality Instructional Design
3. Quality Assessment
4. Visions, Beliefs, and Missions
5. Leadership for School Improvement
6. Community Building
7. Continuous Improvement and Learning.

If you would like to volunteer for one of these committees, please email me at ksullenberger@rockwellhigh.net with your name, focus group of interest, and contact information.

We will have our first focus group meetings on Monday, 11/28/11 at 3:30 p.m.

As always, thank you all so much for being a part of Rockwell.

Mr. Kevin Sullenberger
Director, Rockwell
