Looking Ahead to a Successful 2024-2025 School Year
Greetings RPS Community,
I hope this letter finds you refreshed and energized after a fantastic summer break with your loved ones! Whether you enjoyed a peaceful staycation, explored new horizons abroad, soaked up the sun at the beach, or simply enjoyed a quiet stroll in the park, I trust your time was well spent and much deserved.
Now, as we gear up for the 2024/25 school year, I have to ask—are you ready to dive in with the “Targeted Tenacity” that will make our teaching and learning experiences truly unforgettable? Let’s make this year our best one yet!
I look forward to collaborating with all families you as we work together to create a dynamic and supportive learning environment across the district.
A Look Forward:

We look forward to sharing updates on the RPS Strategic Plan: Vision 2027 initiatives with our entire school community. That being said I am proud to announce the return of our scholars on Thursday, September 7th. Schedules are available in the Genesis Student Information System.
This year, we have established a bold and ambitious trajectory for our district, underscored by a robust set of district goals that will shape our efforts throughout the 2024-2025 school year. These aspirational goals will serve as the guiding principles as we work collectively to enhance student outcomes and elevate the overall educational experience. You will have the opportunity to engage in a deeper dive into these goals during the upcoming convocation, as well as in dedicated building and department meetings..
Beyond everything else, this gathering serves as a platform for us all to embark on this collective journey, uniting as a formidable team to steer the course of teaching and learning ahead. Additionally, it offers each member of our team the opportunity to delve deeper into the safety protocols and measures we are putting in place.
My overarching theme for this academic year is "Targeted with Tenacity” for All. This approach underscores our commitment to addressing the diverse needs of our entire school community with focused determination. By prioritizing the social-emotional, and academic well-being of our students and staff, we aim to create equitable opportunities and experiences for everyone.
May we continue to keep the mantra "All Students Matter" alive in our endeavors, remaining committed to "Every Student Everyday" as we infuse purpose into our actions, all the while staying rooted in our "WHY" as we “Elevate and Amplify” teaching and learning opportunities for ALL.
Educationally and passionately yours,
Dr. Nathan L. Fisher, Superintendent
