Parents & patrons can now be notified via e-mail about division-wide school openings, closings, and delays
Rockingham County Public Schools is offering a service for parents and patrons who wish to be notified about division-wide school openings, closings, and delays via e-mail. Previously, notification about school openings, closings, and delays has been posted on the RCPS website. Now, in addition to this, parents who register their e-mail addresses will have this same announcement sent directly to their e-mail accounts.
To register, send an e-mail to technology@rockingham.k12.va.us. Note: if you subscribed in a previous year there is no need to subscribe again--your name is still in the list.
You may also wish to add the following e-mail addresses to the "safe list" on your spam filter so these notifications will not be treated as spam:
noreply@rockingham.k12.va.us
and
schedule-changes@lists.rockingham.k12.va.us
If you would like for this message to come to you as a text message on your phone, send in your number as an e-mail address from the chart below:

Please note: RCPS cannot guarantee that e-mail announcements about school openings, closings, and delays will be delivered. E-mail servers, including the RCPS server, may be out of service in severe weather situations. Also, e-mails sent to large numbers of recipients may be regarded as spam by some servers and automatically deleted. The absence of an announcement posted on the web and sent to parents/patrons via e-mail does not necessarily mean that there are no closings, delayed openings, or early dismissals. Consult with local radio and TV stations for additional information.
