Students in CTE Mechatronics are setting up the new robotic arm! This tech was made possible by our SME STEM grant!
Can’t wait to see everyone tomorrow 9/6! Reminder the first day of school is a 1/2 day.
For professional development today Rudyard Staff left the building and were able to learn throughout the district! Learning Stops included the Kinross Rec Center, the Duke's Lake Rec Area, Deli Queen (for a treat!), Chippewa County Central Dispatch, the Rudyard School Farm and the Rudyard Twp Park!
At each stop the staff had the opportunity to learn about different topics including literacy, wellness, athletics and more!
Can't wait to have more learning opportunities throughout our large and beautiful community!
Just a Reminder
Orientation: 7th Grade and new student orientation will be on 8/31 from 10:00 -2:00 PM. This will be a time for these students to ask questions, tour the building and get their schedules.
NHS members will be on site to answer student questions and walk them around. This orientation is a walk-in style and typically takes a student about 30 minutes. Parents/Guardians are welcome to attend with their students.
Excited to share that the Rudyard Student Section has been named in honor of 2001 Graduate and Bulldog Super Fan Joe Van Dusen!
To attempt to further clarify our new Drop-off/Pickup & parking situation we've put together a couple of images. These plans could change going forward as the year continues, but hopefully only slightly if so. If there are any questions or concerns please direct those to Tom McKee at tmckee@eupschools.org.
Parking in front of the HS & Elementary Office is only available between 9am and 2pm on school days (excluding half days when that time will be 11am). For the first several weeks we'll set out cones for guidance.
2022-2023 Calendar Highlights!

Hi Bulldog Family. No changes to the school calendar from the last posting, just pushing this out again.
The Administrative Office will be closed Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday this week (8/1-8/3) for cleaning.
Rudyard has been doing a bit of spring cleaning lately, and we're needing to make some room so we're looking to auction off a lot of our used and no longer needed stuff. What might that be? From kitchen supply's, sports mats, woodworking tools, desks, tables, basketball hoops, a whole lot of things! It is an online auction through Duncan Auctions and must pickup from the site.
If you're interested here is the link to Duncan Auctions which you just go through the "View Online Catalog": https://duncanauctions.org/index.php/upcoming-auctions/?es_feed_target=%2F%2Fwww.GoToAuction.com%2Ffeed%2Fes_c1002.cgi%3Fes_id%3D3367%26id%3D1431069%26feed_type%3D200%26es_cfid%3D6524

EUPConnect BROADBAND SURVEY
Broadband Internet is an essential to life in the Eastern Upper Peninsula. Unfortunately, reliable broadband access is not available throughout the region. To bring Broadband access to every 911 address in the EUP, more accurate information about connectivity in our region is needed.
Over the next few weeks, every household in the 3 counties will receive a postcard with instructions on how to participate in the survey. The survey may be completed digitally on the web or a paper survey available by request for those who might not have access.
The survey will take about 5-minutes to complete with one response requested for every household, business, vacation, or recreational property with a 911 service address.
The results of this short survey will be used to facilitate public-private partnerships which will seek funding from state and federal sources for broadband infrastructure deployment in the region.
To complete the survey, go to www.MichiganMoonshot.org/EUPConnect. For more information, call 906-259-8300.
