RCS will operate on our normal schedule with no closings, delays or cancellations for August 9th. All school activities and athletics will operate on their normal schedule as well.
In anticipation of hazardous weather conditions from Tropical Storm Debby and out of an abundance of caution, all Rockingham County Schools will be closed Thursday, August 8th. All school activities, child care, and summer feeding & meal distributions are cancelled as well.
Yesterday an automobile accident occured in the Eden area that severely damaged Bright Speed phone services in the area.
Yesterday an estimated time of restoration was given, but the issue has not yet been resolved.
Calling in Eden area schools, Central Office, and calls to the Help Desk are still affected as a result of this.
Outbound calling and interoffice calling is still functional, however inbound calling will continue to be an issue until Bright Speed can resolve the issue and repair the damaged line.
RCS and our government, business and community partners welcomed DOE Secretary Jennifer Granholm who announced a grant award of $7.8 million for our RCS energy efficiency and improvement projects!

Hi! My name is Cassie Higgs and I am excited to join Holmes Middle School as your School Counselor!
Before coming to HMS, I previously served as a high school counselor for Rockingham County High School (5 years) and NC Cyber Academy (3 years). Not only am I happy to return to RCS, but I am excited to begin a new chapter in my career serving middle school students and families. I hope to bring my knowledge and experience as a school counselor, as well as my passion for students' academic, social, and emotional wellbeing to support the great work being done at HMS.
I am married to my wonderful husband, Chris, and together we have two beautiful daughters, Sadie Beth (age 6) and Lynlee (age 3). My hobbies include reading (or listening) to a book and cooking/baking in my kitchen.
I am looking forward to being part of the incredible school community at HMS! Go Mustangs!
Congratulations to our Mrs. Staley on her new position as Assistant Principal at Wentworth Elementary!! She may be an eagle now, but she'll always be a Mustang to us.
