Roundup School District

Friendly Reminder! Roundup Public Schools will be hosting a community forum to gather community feedback and explore options around a 4-day school week. The meeting will be tonight at 6:00PM at the Roundup High School Gym. We have invited retired superintendent Gordan Hahn to provide an information session about a 4-day school week. Gordan worked in Saco, MT. Their district went to a 4-day school week about 11 years ago, and they were one of the first districts in Montana to move to this new model. Now nearly 180 schools in Montana operate on a 4-day school week. Schools have moved to this model from Class C, Class B, and Class A schools. At our February regular board meeting, the Roundup Board of Trustees moved to begin exploring this as an option for our school calendar. The Roundup Board of Trustees has not made any decisions. This forum will serve as the beginning to a fact finding mission, to look at the advantages and disadvantages this could have for our community. We encourage Roundup families and concerned community members to join us on March 7th (Tonight) at 6 PM at the high school gym. Go Panthers!

The city is replacing the water line on 11th Avenue which is just south of the elementary school. In the morning, drop off will remain the same. In the afternoon 11th Avenue will be blocked off for the construction company and it will remain that way until the construction is complete. The barricades will be moved to allow buses to pass after and before school. Tuesday, February 28th, in the afternoon through Friday, March 3rd, parents will not be allowed to park on 11th Avenue in front of the school to pick up or drop off students until construction is completed. Parents will need to park on 4th Street and walk over to pick up or drop off students. We apologize for the inconvenience. Parents, the bus drivers and staff will have to use the fire access road during this time please do not use the fire access road.
