The State Monitor appointed to the Rochester City School District is seeking input from the public on specific academic and fiscal reports pertaining to the RCSD. A public hearing took place on Tuesday, November 30, 2021 where State Monitor Dr. Shelley Jallow presented an update on academic and financial plans for Rochester.

In 2020, a new law came into effect that directed the Commissioner of Education to appoint a Monitor to provide oversight, guidance, and technical assistance related to the academic and fiscal policies, practices, programs, and decisions of the Rochester City School District, the Board of Education, and the Superintendent. 

Hearings were conducted in June, July, and November of 2020 that focused on governance and intervention, academic performance status, fiscal performance status, as well as other specific academic and fiscal issues.  

Any interested persons may submit feedback in one of two ways:

• Emailing statemonitor@rcsdk12.org
• Calling 585-474-0843

The purpose of this feedback is to assist Dr. Jallow as she continues work on academic improvement and fiscal plans for the District and to support the District’s development of its budgets.
