ROCHESTER — Superintendent Kyle Repucci and Rochester Middle School Principal Adam Houghton are pleased to share that faculty and staff came together to create a welcome video for fifth grade students who will be moving up to the school this fall.

Each year, the school typically holds a “Step Up” Day in June, which serves as an opportunity for the incoming students to tour the middle school, meet teachers, ask questions and so on. However, schools statewide have been closed since mid-March and will remain closed for the remainder of the school year due to COVID-19.

In an effort to provide students with a glimpse into life at their new school, however, Rochester Middle School faculty and staff came together to create a video to welcome the 332 new students. The video was shared with students and their families today. 

“Step Up Day is a really fun opportunity for students to learn about their new school, and we wanted to make sure our incoming students had a similar welcoming experience,” Principal Houghton said. “It really helps make that first day of school an easier transition, and we’re excited to have the incoming sixth grade class join the Rochester Middle community.”

The video includes a presentation by Principal Houghton, tour of the facility and a welcome message to the incoming students. A presentation video was also sent to special education students and their families , and on May 11, the school is additionally hosting a virtual question and answer event through Zoom at 6 p.m. with parents and guardians. 

“This was a really great effort on behalf of our Rochester Middle School team, and I’d like to thank them for putting this video together for students and their families,” Superintendent Repucci said. “Our faculty and staff have worked hard over the last few weeks to craft engaging remote learning opportunities, and it was special to see our district is already looking forward to the fall and making an effort to make sure students will feel welcome.”

Step Up Day was initially scheduled for June 4 this year, prior to the COVID-19 outbreak.
