Home of the Rockets

Dear Berne Union Rockets,

We recognize that the recent announcement by the Governor to place school districts on an extended break of three weeks creates a significant disturbance to our regular routines, but we want you to know that your ROCKET family is dedicated to assisting your family in any way we can.

During this break we will continue to provide meals to our free and reduced students in need, as we understand the importance of nourishment on a daily basis. If your student(s) qualify for the free and reduced lunch program please see the below details:

• Meals will be available in a Drive-Thru format in the parking lot of the school from 10-11 a.m. and 5-6 p.m. each Wednesday beginning Wednesday, March 18, 2020.

• Students will receive a bag containing 5 days worth of meal items

• There will also be one bag containing items for the whole family

We also would encourage ANY family that has a need to please contact Jodi Poling in the District Office (740-746-8341 ext. 4) so that we can do our best to help with feeding our students and families during this time.

This is unchartered territory for all of us regarding the reason for this extended break, but please know that we are dedicated to serving our students and their families in every way possible.

Jon Parker, Interim Superintendent
Kirk Grandy, Treasurer
