Message from the Superintendent
Welcome to the Rockport Public Schools website. We are extremely proud of the Rockport Public School District, a small pre-kindergarten through grade 12 district of approximately 1,050 students and 180 staff. The school district provides a comprehensive, innovative, and caring educational environment for our students. Tremendous support is offered by community organizations, including the Parent Teacher Organization (PTO), the Rockport Educational Foundation, the Friends of Rockport Athletics, the Special Education Parent Advisory Council (SPED PAC), the Raising Rockport Readers, and the Rockport Rotary Club. The Rockport Police, Fire, and Library Departments, as well as town officials, continue to contribute to the excellence of the school district.
We hope this website will serve as an important means to communicate with our parents, students, staff, the community, and visitors. The Rockport Public School website offers information in a variety of areas in an easy to navigate format. Each of the schools, as well as the Special Education department, has its own link to provide parents and students with specific information about the school or department.
There is a special link to Rockport Public School Resources that should help staff, parents, and students with their everyday activities. The Events Calendar allows everyone to view the activities and the locations that have been booked through the District Office. If you are planning an event, this feature allows you to see when and where other events have been planned. A link to the School Committee lists the School Committee members, agendas, and minutes of meetings, as well as other reports and documents. There are also links to the Rockport Educational Foundation, the PTO, and the Friends of Rockport Athletics. Job openings can be found on a separate link on the homepage. There are many other links and valuable information about our school system available to all.
We encourage you to explore the various links and get to know more about the Rockport Public Schools. Please feel free to contact us with ideas and suggestions to further improve our website.

Express Your View of Rockport’s School-Community Opportunities and Issues
Rockport Community Survey
We aim to improve Rockporters' interaction with and appreciation of our schools, leading to knowledgeable support and participation. This requires excellent communication both ways between residents and school leadership. The Rockport Community Connection Survey is providing the first step towards this vision - determining which issues, opinions and suggestions residents consider most important. To achieve this, we need to survey a representative sample of adult Rockporters. If you’re a Rockporter, at least 21 years old, please help us by going to the above link and completing the survey.
Questions/comments email rptconnect@gmail.com.
THANKS.
