Welcome!
As you begin (or continue) your career with the RCSD, we wish to celebrate your entry into the profession (or your decision to continue your professional work with us in Rochester!), and to assist you with the many challenges and questions you will face as a new educator in our district . As part of your contractually-required “orientation and in-service” days, you are invited to attend the summer 2024 New Educator Orientation August 19-21. Scroll down for updated information and for materials from the August 2024 New Educator Orientation Google Drive Folder.
