Good morning,
As the new school year is approaching, we are working on getting bus routes created so we can communicate pick up and drop off times with families before school begins. If you are new to the district, have a new address for pick up or drop off or have any other change that would effect transportation for your children, please reach out to Mr. Gullstrand at ggullstrand@rowva.k12.il.us.

Attention Jr/Sr High School parents and students:

Hello! I hope everyone has had a nice start to their summer break. However, it is never to early to start thinking about chromebook insurance for the upcoming school year. See the attached flyer for information and contact Max Roberts at mroberts@rowva.k12.il.us with any questions.

Congratulations to our 4th Quarter Elementary Honor Roll recipients! Everyone have a great summer!

Both playgrounds on the ROWVA Elementary campus will be closed for the summer due to construction projects, maintenance, and other renovations. Thank you for your understanding and have a great summer!

Mr. Rees, Mrs. Carlson, and Mrs. Frey were able to take some of our students to Springfield for Students for Innovation Advocay Day. Students were taken to the Illinois State Capitol to talk with legislators about the importance of STEM education. Here they are pictured with Senator Halpin.

Good morning,
Parents of Dana's AM central route, (bus #18) Dana is out sick this morning. If your child NEEDS A RIDE to school this morning, please let Mr. Gullstrand know by emailing him at ggullstrand@rowva.k12.il.us or by calling/texting him at 309-299-3702. Either Mr. Gullstrand or Mrs. Danner will come pick your child up and get them to school. If you're going to take your child to school yourself, you do not need to let us know.
