Mark your calendars for the annual Haunted School on Friday and Saturday, October 23 and 24 from 6:30 - 9 pm! Admission is only $5! Come out and support our band program and get scared by our band students!

Open Enrollment for the 2026-2027 school year is now officially underway! We are once again partnering with Lotterease to offer an online application/enrollment process. The link to submit an application is on the Enrollment Page of our website (https://www.roxborocs.org/page/enrollment). We will be accepting applications for the 2026-2027 school year from October 7, 2025 to March 3, 2026. If we have more applications than openings, we will hold an online lottery on March 5, 2026. Please help us spread the word to friends, family, and neighbors with children who will be in 6th-12th grade next year.
A few important reminders
* Students who are currently attending Roxboro Community School DO NOT need to re-apply to attend next school year.
* Siblings of current students or alumni DO need to complete an application to attend RCS next year. They are given preference in the lottery because they are the sibling** of a current student or alumni. But they DO have to apply by the March 3, 2026 deadline or the Lotterease computer system will automatically place them on a waiting list. [**"Sibling" includes brothers or sisters, half-siblings, step-siblings, or foster siblings living in the same household.]
* Paper copies of the 2026-2027 application are available for anyone who does not have internet or computer access.
Please visit the Enrollment page on our website (https://www.roxborocs.org/page/enrollment) for more information, or contact RCS Registrar, Jodi DeVillier, at 336.597.0020, ext 322 or devillierjh@roxborocs.org if you have questions or concerns.

There is a board meeting this Monday, October 13 at 6 p.m. in the RCS Library. Remember, board meetings are open to the public.
