You are invited to attend the 2025 Winter Guard Showcase at 7:30 p.m. March 20 at the Ray-Pec High School auxiliary gym. Enter through the commons doors 23. The showcase will feature the Winter Guard’s “Interstellar” theatrical show along with many soloists and small groups. Donations of sunscreen, bandaids, and nonperishable food items for the Panther Closet are requested but not required for entry to the showcase.
Ray-Pec Cheer is kicking things off with its information meeting on 6 p.m. March 12 in the RPHS Library. Mandatory clinics will occur from 3:15 to 5:30 p.m. on April 8 and 9 in the RPHS Gym. Middle School Tryouts are on April 10, and High School Tryouts are on April 11. Results for all squads will be posted by 10 p.m. on April 11.
Ray-Pec plans to have in-person school tomorrow.
We don’t usually send a message when schools are going to be OPEN, but after last week, it seems like a good idea! If there is a change to our plans for tomorrow, we will communicate by 5:30 a.m.
Please remember to use caution while driving, especially in the southern parts of the district; be patient about possible bus delays, and make sure that students dress warmly. Monday morning temperatures are predicted to be cold!
Due to the severe winter weather conditions, there will be no school on Monday, Jan. 6, 2025.
This will be a traditional inclement weather day and no virtual learning classes will be held.
This is a significant storm that will take time to clear and make roadways and walkways passable. Our goal is to have students back in our buildings as soon as we can, but we realize that the timing and severity of this storm presents us with challenges. Our Ray-Pec building and grounds crews will continue to work with our cities’ and county public works departments and our bus transportation provider to bring us back to workable conditions as soon as possible. Thank you for your understanding.
A decision as to how to make up today’s inclement weather day will be made later in the school year.
Activities
All elementary school, middle school, and high school after-school activities and evening events will be canceled and/or rescheduled.
Child Care
BOOST (Best Out of School Time) is the program that provides before- and after-school care. BOOST will be closed on Monday, Jan. 6.

The Integrated Learning House will be an actual house designed for students with special needs to practice the skills needed to live on their own. Students will not live in the house, but will use the house as a classroom to learn a variety of tasks.
Here are two concept drawings of the Integrated Learning House.
