Jacob Flanigan (class of 2005) returned to Rock Point School last week to talk to students about his volunteer project with WindowDressers. Jacob is a senior engineer at Norwich Solar Technologies and has been interested in helping Vermonters conserve energy and reduce emissions for his entire career. WindowDressers does just that!

You're Invited to Rock Point School's Remote Reunion on June 13, 1:00 p.m. -3:30 p.m. The Rock Point School Reunion is going remote! This year we will be using Zoom to connect with Alumni, former staff, and families.

During their work with our college counselor or weekly meetings with their advisors, students explore who they've been, who they are now, and who they want to be. There is a big focus on personal qualities and values, but students are also encouraged to explore potential career paths. Staff can help them connect with professionals in the community.

For the past twelve years, our Residential educators have offered a "Wellness" class on Thursday evenings. This class generally covered topics related to health, wellness, and well being. This September, staff met with the students to discuss what direction they thought the class should take this year. Students were clear that they wanted the class to be more about concrete skills, activities and topics aimed at life after high school. They came up with a great list of topics and our new "Life Skills" class was born!
