If your student is missing any required immunizations, you should have received a notice from Health Services Facilitator Kathy Varieur or your child's school nurse. Please schedule an appointment as soon as possible for your student to receive any missing immunizations and provide the updated immunization records to kvarieur@northrockland.org.
Students who are not up to date on their required immunizations will be excluded from school beginning Sept. 22, 2026, in accordance with New York state requirements.
Thank you for your prompt attention to this important matter. If you have any questions, please contact Kathy Varieur at kvarieur@northrockland.org or 845-942-3073.

ParentSquare Communication App
ParentSquare is our districtwide communication platform. This tool is used for all school, district and classroom communication into one place, making it easier for staff to connect with families and for families to stay informed and engaged. Expect an invite from ParentSquare coming to your email if you do not have an active account already. If you have not received an invite, you can all visit https://www.parentsquare.com/signin to start the process.
As we prepare for the start of the 2026-27 school year, we do so with the knowledge that the North Rockland community is a special place in which parents and the school work together to provide our students with the best possible educational experience. We appreciate that partnership and feel that it is important that the NRCSD continue with its practice of providing Elementary students (Grades K-6) with the basic supplies necessary for success in school rather than putting that burden on to our families.
Classroom teachers have identified and ordered supplies and materials that students will need for the 2026-27 school year. Your child’s teacher will distribute them to students when school begins in September. Your child’s teacher may recommend a few additional items after school starts, but the majority of the supplies will be purchased and provided by the District.
Rivalry Renewed
The most awaited game of the season is HERE! Take a look at this awesome video of both North Rockland and Nyack talking about the importance of this game. Let's go North Rockland!
Welcome Back!
After roaming the NRHS campus all by itself this summer, the Panther HAD to make an appearance on Opening Day! From high-fives and hugs to plenty of pictures, our students, staff and faculty were excited to see the panther back on campus.
Team Bonding and Wins
Over the weekend, North Rockland Field Hockey held a special team bonding breakfast under the pavilion at NRHS, catered by Sparky’s Diner, before the start of the season! Friends and families joined the team for a beautiful brunch and a chance to spend some time together before the season gets underway. The Raiders went on to win their first game of the season against Nanuet 2-1.

Are you Cleared?
Before your student-athlete hits the field, court, pool, or track…make sure they’re officially CLEARED to play. Parents, here’s what you need to know:
- Log in to your registration account to check your child’s clearance status.
- You’ll receive an email notification once they’re approved.
- If they’re not cleared, the system will tell you exactly why and what’s missing.
Student-athletes MUST be cleared before tryouts, no exceptions.
