PAC@ROCHESTER - Performing Arts Camp

We are thrilled to begin offering performing arts camps (PAC) at Rochester this Summer.  There will be two, one week camps the week of July 18 and the week of July 25.  Camp will be available to students entering the 3rd grade through completion of 9th grade.  The attendees are placed in four groups based upon birthdate.  Campers will participate in daily classes in stage, art, music, dance and recreation.  The campers will perform on Friday at 5:30 pm their very own show with each group performing a skit, a song and dance, and all will participate in a full group production number.  Registration will begin April 11 and enrolled students at Rochester will have first chance at the camps.  Camp runs from 9-4 p.m. daily.  A daycare option is available at an additional cost which allows campers to be dropped off after 7:30 a.m. and picked up by 5:30 p.m.  You may attend one or both camps.  You may email our Fine Arts Coordinator, Mr. Bauser with any questions bbauser@rochester3a.net.

Hazel Heath

We’re launching our health services program for this school year, and we want to make sure your family has access to these services all year long. Our district is hosting a Consent for Care Drive to ensure 100% of families learn about our student health services from Hazel Health. With Hazel, students can immediately speak with a Hazel doctor right from school or at home.

On-demand health services include:

Medical treatment: For stomach aches, headaches, sprained ankles, asthma concerns, and everything in between

Medication: Prescriptions written or over-the-counter provided at school when needed

Coordination: With family physician and return to school communications

Parents - Please sign the Consent for Care form to ensure your child has access to these services: my.hazel.co/rochester3a
