Rowe Elementary School

Good evening, Rowe folks. Due to this nasty storm, Rowe School is canceled tomorrow, Thursday, April 3. The conferences that were scheduled for today (Wednesday) will be rescheduled to next Wednesday, April 10, which will be a full day of school. The conferences scheduled for tomorrow (Thursday) will be rescheduled to next Thursday, April 11, which will be a 12:30 release day. Conferences scheduled for this Friday, April 5, will go on as scheduled, and this Friday will still be a 12:30 release to allow for the conferences. If we end up with a two-hour delay this Friday, it will NOT be a 12:30 release, we will be in school until the regular dismissal time of 3:15, and Friday's conferences will be rescheduled to Friday, April 12, which will become a 12:30 release day. If the rescheduled days or times don't work for you, contact Laurie or your student's teacher. Today's MCAS tests for students in grades 3-6 have been rescheduled for next Wednesday, April 10. Please be safe.

Good morning, Rowe families. Due to the snow that is forecast to start this afternoon (and continue through tomorrow), to keep everyone safe, we're going to have a 12:30 release today, Wednesday, April 3rd. Conferences scheduled for this afternoon will be rescheduled, MCAS tests for students in grades 3-6 will also be rescheduled. I'm sorry for the inconvenience, and please call us at the school if this presents a problem for you. We'll let you know as soon as we have a decision about tomorrow.

We're starting on time today, but there are pockets of snow on the roads up here in the hills, so give yourself a few extra minutes and be safe on the way in. It's Music Monday, so we get to sing today! See you soon. Bill

Just a quick reminder that there is a two-hour delay due to a scheduled power outage tomorrow. School starts at 10:30, students can be dropped off at the school after 9:45. Just be glad this rain isn't snow!

We are starting on time today, but I'm hearing reports of some trees down and some slick roads, so please be careful. The parking lot and sidewalks have been treated, but they can still be challenging, so take care this morning!

Good morning, Rowe families. Due to some challenging road conditions in the higher elevations, Rowe School is canceled today. Please be safe, post snow day pictures on the Facebook page, and we'll see you tomorrow.

It looks like the weather is going to (mostly) cooperate, the rain is forecast to stop around 6:00 a.m. tomorrow. The conditions may not be the best, but even a so-so day of skiing, snowboarding, and creative crafting can be a good day. It will be warmer and wetter tomorrow, so keep that in mind as your students get ready for school, it might be good to send some extra outerwear if that's a possibility. If you drop your student off at school, and want them to have breakfast, please strive to have them here by 8:15, so we can leave for the mountain by 8:35. Be safe today, stay dry tonight, and we'll see you tomorrow.

Well, if it's not one thing it's another. Due to the weather, Rowe School has a two-hour delay today, Wednesday, January 24. School will start at 10:30, breakfast will not be served, and students are welcome at the school after 9:45. Be safe and we'll see you soon.

As far as the water goes, we are good to go for tomorrow. Thanks for your patience while we got the problem fixed. If Mohawk cancels or has a delay due to the weather, we will do the same. There has been no word on that yet, that decision is typically made by 5:00 a.m. Hopefully, we'll see all of your children tomorrow. Sleep tight.

Good evening, Rowe families. We are still working on getting water going at the school tonight. If they can fix it this evening, we'll have school tomorrow. If the work extends into tomorrow, we won't. I should know better within the hour. I'm sorry for the lack of clarity. It is also forecast to snow through the night and into tomorrow afternoon, so that may have an impact as well. If the decision is made tonight before 8:30, I'll send a call out, as well as an email and a Facebook post. If the decision is made after 8:30, I will share the information by email and Facebook tonight and send a call first thing in the morning.

My apologies, Rowe families. I sent an email yesterday afternoon, and posted a message on Facebook, that we wouldn't have school today. What I neglected to do was send another call out as well. I know we had some families that did not get the message that school was canceled today, and I'm sorry for the confusion and for the hassle it must have added to your morning. As soon as I know about tomorrow, I will put the message out in every way possible - Bill

Good morning again. School is canceled today, and I'll be in touch as soon as I know about tomorrow.

Good morning, Rowe folx. We have no water pressure at the school this morning. We're working on it to resolve the issue, but we can't have school if we don't have water, so we're starting with a two-hour delay. I'll be back in touch by 7:30 if we can't get this fixed, and we'll have to cancel for the day. I apologize for the late and indefinite message and will keep you informed as soon as we know more.

We've been working to get all bus students to school a little earlier, so everyone can get breakfast and get to the classroom on time. The new schedule starts tomorrow,. The afternoon schedule stays the same. If you drop your student off at the school in the morning, have your student to school by 8:15 if you want them to have breakfast, and 8:25 if not.

Good evening, Rowe families. Due to the uncertain forecast, we will have a two-hour delay tomorrow, Wednesday, January 10. School will start at 10:30, breakfast will not be served.

Hello, Rowe families. Snow is forecast to start around 1:00 today. Mohawk (and other schools) have canceled any after-school activities (we have none today, Arts and Crafts is tomorrow, and Baking is on Friday). Mohawk is releasing students at the regular time, we will be doing the same. The overnight weather will be interesting, hopefully we'll have a full day tomorrow. Also, we plan to have a great day on the mountain (and at the school) on Thursday. If we have a delay on either day, we'll get the word out as soon as we know anything.

Good morning, Rowe families. The school was broken into sometime over the holiday break. It was discovered this morning, and we’ve been working with the Rowe Police and State Police to make sure the building is secure. We have been assured it is safe to have school today. This appears to be part of a pattern of school break-ins in the southern Vermont and western Mass. area in which schools are entered when they are empty during the nights or weekends. There will be a Police presence at the school this morning as it is part of an ongoing investigation. Please call us if you have any questions.

Good Morning, Rowe families. Due to the weather, Rowe School is canceled today, Wednesday, November 22. Please stay safe, enjoy the holiday and the long weekend, and we'll see you all Monday. The Rowe PTP is selling pies at Moonlight Magic in Shelburne Falls on Friday, join them if you can.
