  • Middle School Chromebook Collection

  • Secure Access with 2-Step Verification
    One of RCSD’s top priorities is to protect the data of our staff members, students, parents/guardians, and our vendors and community partners. To further secure our organization and our collective data, Technology Services has built a strategy to implement 2-Step Verification, also known as two-factor authentication (2FA) or multi-factor authentication (MFA).

    In compliance with the District’s cyber and ransomware insurance coverage, all RCSD employees will be required to enable 2-Step verification on or before May 27, 2022.

    Please click the following link: https://www.rcsdk8.org/secureaccess for additional information, as well as instructional videos to enable 2-Step Verification.

All assemblies that involve animals on campus should be communicated to parents before the event. This can be done through an email, newsletter, blog, etc. If your students WILL be touching the animals, parents must fill out the SIG Activities Waiver. If your students will NOT be touching animals and will only be looking at the animals from a distance, you do not need to have parents fill out the waiver.
