This spring, our district will administer several student surveys designed to provide valuable feedback about our schools, programs, and student experiences. The information gathered helps us better understand what we are doing well and where there may be opportunities for growth and improvement. Student feedback is an important part of our ongoing efforts to create the best possible learning environment for all students.

In compliance with Michigan law, parents and guardians are being notified in advance of these surveys and are encouraged to review the survey materials before administration. Links to each survey are provided below so families can make informed decisions regarding their student’s participation.

Parents and guardians have the right to opt their student out of participating in any survey. To opt out, please contact your school office no later than Friday, May 15th.

We are committed to transparency and will share a summary of the data collected with our community before the end of the school year.

Thank you for your continued partnership and support.

Dear Families,

We’re sharing the attached infographic to provide clear information about the upcoming Non-Homestead Millage Renewal vote on May 5, 2026.

This proposal is a renewal of an existing millage, not a new tax, and would continue funding for school operations at current levels. By law, this millage applies only to non-homestead properties, such as businesses, rental properties, and second homes—not primary residences.

In Michigan, school funding is based on a state formula, and districts like ours rely on non-homestead property tax revenue to support day-to-day operations, including staffing, programs, and student services.

The infographic outlines key details about how this funding works and what it supports within our district.

If you have questions or would like more information, please visit rapsk12.net or call 989-275-6600.

Thank you for taking the time to stay informed.

Infographic titled “Non-Homestead Millage Renewal FAQs” from Roscommon Area Public Schools. It explains that the May 5, 2026 vote is a renewal, not a new tax, continuing current funding levels with no more than 18 mills. The millage applies only to non-homestead properties such as businesses, rental properties, and second homes, not primary residences. It states that Michigan school funding relies on a state formula and local non-homestead property taxes. If the renewal fails, the district would lose about 68% of its funding, leading to program cuts, larger class sizes, reduced athletics, and staff reductions. The graphic includes school branding, a buck mascot, and a call to vote on election day.
Attention 3rd and 4th Grade Parents/Guardians,

Our state testing begins tomorrow! Please review the attached information and help your child come to school well-rested, on time, and ready to do their best each day. We appreciate your support in encouraging a positive mindset and effort during testing week. If you have any additional questions, please feel free to reach out to your child's teacher.

School Operating Millage Renewal

Did you know the upcoming school operating millage is a renewal, not a new tax?

This proposal continues the existing 18 mills that have been collected on non-homestead properties (such as businesses, rental properties, and second homes) since Michigan’s property tax law changes in 1994.

✔️ No increase in the millage rate
✔️ No impact on primary residences
✔️ Continues essential funding for our schools - Curriculum supplies, school lunches, transportation, school personnel, athletics and extracurriculars.

This renewal helps maintain the resources and opportunities our students rely on every day.

Learn more and stay informed as you prepare to vote!

Any questions? Call the Board of Education office at 989-275-6600.

Dear RAPS School Community,
As we begin planning for the 2026–2027 school year, we would like to share some important calendar information that has been finalized. In Michigan, local school districts align certain dates with the common calendar established by our Intermediate School District (COOR ISD). This ensures consistency for families and staff across the region. At this time, the following dates are confirmed and will not change:
Winter Break: December 23, 2026 through January 1, 2027
Spring Break: March 29 through April 5, 2027
We are sharing these dates now to assist families with advance planning. Additional details for the full school calendar—including the first and last day of school, professional development days, and other key dates—will be released once finalized.
Thank you for your continued support and partnership. We look forward to another successful school year ahead.
