Our elementary school offers
many different times and places
throughout the day for the
students to remain physically
active.
This is a view of a courtyard area
where elementary students are able to
interact while enjoying the great
outdoors.
Our elementary campus is
equipped with two computer labs
to introduce computer technology
to students at a younger age.
Families in our district are
provided an opportunity to
participate in the “Discovery
Gardens” preschool
program.
The goals of the program are to:
-increase interest in learning
-improve social skills
-ability to work in a group
-increase self reliance
-increase interest and
excitement about school
Each class meets 2 days /week ( 2 ½ -3 hours each class.) Classes are
available in Lamberton and Jeffers
There are a large variety of classes
offered to students at Red Rock Central.
Besides just the general “core courses”
and a variety of electives, college credit
courses are provided as well. These
courses include College Composition,
PreCalculus, and Cisco Networking.
Occupational training courses are also
offered. They include Automotive and
School to Work. School to Work allows
students to find a job off campus, and
the students receive a grade based on
their employers evaluation. Some
students utilize this program to work for
RRCNet throughout the school day.
Our automotive shop was also
included in the recent new
addition. It provides students an
opportunity to receive hands on
experience for a possible future
career in the automotive field.
At Red Rock Central we are proud to have a nonprofit organization that
provides internet communications, e-mail, and trouble shooting to local residents.
This business provides both dial-up and wireless internet. It also provides an
opportunity for students to work and gain knowledge in this field. Other than one
adult supervisor, RRCNet is operated and managed by students who are hired by
the boss/ educator.
Here we have one of the five computers labs
where students can enhance their educational
experience. All computers have access to the
internet and many other programs.
This power point presentation was
designed by Jared Johnson and Shane
Neperman. It is an FCCLA Star Event under the
category Applied Technology. Our project is
complete, but we have attached our e-mail
addresses for additional thoughts or comments.
