MDS
We are looking for another Meal Duty Supervisor.  The job of Meal Duty Supervisor (MDS) is done for the purpose of providing safety of students during lunch time. Being a MDS is a great way to get started as an employee at Stoneridge and the Roseville City School District.

It's box top time! Please gather your box tops and have students turn them in to their teacher(or the office) between now and Thursday, October 27th!  Collection sheets will be distributed to students this week. Please label with student's name, grade and teacher.  Happy clipping!

The 2017-2018 school year GATE identification test will be administered at the District Office for students currently in 2nd-7th grade around January 2017. The students will take the Otis-Lennon School Ability Test, OLSAT, that tests abstract thinking and reasoning ability. The form will be linked here beginning November 14, 2016.
