🌸 Spring Break Reminder! 🌸
Rapid City Area Schools will be on Spring Break from April 14–21. There will be no school during that week as students and staff take a well-deserved break!
📅 Classes will resume on Monday, April 22.
We hope everyone enjoys a safe, relaxing, and refreshing break! 💐☀️


Our December staff appreciation event! A huge thank you to The Elks Theatre for hosting our staff! 😊
