Rochester Public Schools (RPS) remains steadfast in its commitment to delivering a top-tier education. We believe in the transformative power of technology and are determined to find innovative ways to integrate it into our classrooms. On Nov. 7, voters will be asked to consider a capital projects levy referendum to fund $10 million annually to fund technology and maintain class size.
RPS is on a journey toward a brighter future, where technology plays a pivotal role in shaping our education. Together, we can overcome obstacles and provide students with the tools they need to thrive in the digital age.
Please vote on or before November 7.
