🎓 What does it mean to be a Roland-Story Norsemen graduate?
That’s the big question our School Improvement Advisory Committee (SIAC) began exploring last Spring, as we continue to explore the Portrait of a Graduate process!
Together, we're identifying the skills, competencies, and characteristics we want every Roland-Story student to develop before they walk across the graduation stage.
This exciting work is about more than test scores and grades. It's about preparing students for success in school, in their careers, and in life!
The future of Roland-Story starts with a shared community and school vision of our graduates.
Be on the lookout to see how you can get involved in this work!

Across the country, school lunches serve nearly 30 million children each school day. Here at Roland-Story, our food service team puts care into every meal, helping students stay fueled and ready to learn.
From fruits and veggies to whole grains, protein, and milk, healthy choices deserve the spotlight, and so do the people preparing and serving them. ❤️🖤
Thank you, food service team! We appreciate you this week and every week.

Join us during halftime of the Roland-Story vs. Hampton-Dumont-CAL varsity home football game at Kerry Van Winkle Field as we name the press box in Rich’s honor.
It’s also Senior Night, and we can’t think of a better way to bring generations of Norsemen together than celebrating our senior athletes and honoring Rich, who invested so much time and energy into making our community and state better for the generations to come.
