HIGH SCHOOL CLOSURE FOR 12/1🚨
Please read the following notice from Superintendent Johnson regarding closure of the High School campus tomorrow, December 1st.
Please read the following notice from Superintendent Johnson regarding the smell of gas on the High School campus this morning:
"Dear Parents and Guardians:
Prior to school beginning this morning, the high school building was evaluated by professionals due to the smell of gas. It was determined that there was not a gas leak, but out of an abundance of caution Atmos was also brought in to thoroughly examine the pressure in all lines in the building.
I want to assure you that all students and staff on the campus are safe and we have taken appropriate measures to ensure the safety of the building.
The safety and security of our students and staff is always a top priority.
Jennifer Johnson
Superintendent, Rains ISD"

Are you a parent who wants to recognize a teacher for the inspiration they've been for your child? Are you a coworker who wants to acknowledge your campus custodian for brightening your day? Maybe you're a community member who thinks the Human Resources Manager doesn't hear often enough that they're doing a good job.
You can nominate a RISD staff member for a CAT COMPLIMENT! 😺
Rains ISD is pleased to present this initiative that will allow fellow staff and community members the opportunity to publicly appreciate any Rains ISD employee who goes above and beyond what is expected.
