Over $9000!  That’s how much boxtop$ have brought to Rolling Hills over the last several years.  Rolling Hills' goal this year is $1000!  We just missed that number last year but this year we can do it!

We'll be having another drive for boxtop$ over the month of February.  Please collect and have students turn in to their 1st period class.   The class bringing in the most boxtop$ will be awarded an Ice Cream Cone party with the cones hand scooped by either Mr. Burbank or Ms. Dodd.  

All boxtops are due on “LEAP DAY” February 29th.  That gives us three weeks of collecting.  You can turn them in earlier, of course.  

Start sending in those boxtop$!!    We haven’t had a contest since this time last year, so we know there are boxtop$ out there just waiting to be turned in!

The 8th Annual Campbell Union School District Spelling Bee was held at Rolling Hills on January 27th.  The Bee, which pits the five top spellers from the three Campbell middle schools for the chance to win a perpetual cup, was laborious and fatiguing for all involved.  It was finally won in the 17th round by 8th grader, Enya Walker of Rolling Hills.  Ms. Walker was also the top speller at the Rolling Hills Spelling Bee and will be moving on to the regional, written bee sponsored by KPIX TV.   This is the fourth consecutive year RHMS has won the District cup!

One of the District Governing Board’s main functions is setting Board policies (BP) that guide our administrative regulations (AR). The Board reviews policies regularly and updates them as needed. We disseminate the updated information in a variety of ways, including in parent handbooks and in the Policy Highlights bulletin that is being sent home with students. Copies of all policies and regulations are available from the District office or online at campbellusd.org/policy.
