RCPS Named "Gold Medal" School District

Rockingham County Public Schools has been named a Gold Medal School District by Expansion Management magazine in its 15th annual Education Quotient issue.

Each year, Expansion Management compares more than 2,800 school districts across the country on how well the district is preparing its students to be part of the work force after graduation. As a Gold Medal School District, Rockingham ranks in the top 16 percent of all school districts nationally.

“We are extremely pleased and proud, although not totally surprised, that our local district performed well," said RCPS Superintendent John Kidd.  "This award is validation for all the years of hard work our teachers, administrators, and parents have dedicated toward making sure our children have a bright future."

Expansion Management’s special report is mailed to over 45,000 CEO’s, Vice Presidents, Directors and other officers of companies who are considering expanding into new areas.
