RoCkviLLE CEntRE PubLiC SChooLS

Dear Reader,

Once again, the Board of Education and Administration are pleased to pro-vide a diverse selection of courses to appeal to the needs and interests of the entire community.

The fall term offers many popular repeats as well as a healthy selection of new courses. We are hoping that the large number of people who have participated in the past will continue to take advantage of these educational enrichment activities. In addition to participating in a beneficial learning experience, you will have the opportunity to meet new people and work with old friends.

We look forward to seeing you in the Fall!

Sincerely,

William H. Johnson, Ed.D., Superintendent of Schools
