Congratulations to the talented musicians on a great performance. Thank you to Eric Perkins, Keith Davis and Jennifer Clark for your dedication and hard work guiding the students to musical success.

Staff at Rocky Peak Virtual Elementary after getting slimed Students and teachers at Rocky Peak Virtual Elementary School participated in ‘Walk to Read’ this school year and worked toward the program’s reading goals. Principal Ross Menlove promised if they hit their goals, they would get to slime staff members.

Recently, the students reached their reading goals, and Principal Menlove followed through with his promise by getting slimed, along with the school’s digital and instructional coaches.

Great job to the students and staff at Rocky Peak Virtual Elementary for hitting your reading goals. And, great job to the Rocky Peak staff for finding a fun way to reward students for their hard-earned accomplishments.
