Dear Roxana Community, Parents, Athletes, and Staff,
Due to the potential for inclement weather on Friday, we have rescheduled our Homecoming Football Game vs. Salem to Thursday evening with kickoff starting at 6:30pm. We understand this is a significant change, and we deeply appreciate your flexibility and understanding as we prioritize the safety and Homecoming experience of our students and fans. We are also changing the start time of the football game to 6:30 due to the length of travel Salem will have on a school night.
We know that many of you have had to rearrange your schedules to accommodate this shift, and we sincerely thank you for your support in making this adjustment possible and ensuring a successful Homecoming experience for our students and community. Despite the change, we are excited for a great evening of celebration and competition, and we look forward to seeing everyone at the game on Thursday!

Attention Junior Parents:
We will be offering an opportunity to take the PSAT/NMSQT on Wednesday, October 23rd at 8am to any student who would like to take it. The cost is $10, and students can sign up and pay in the guidance office. This test is used as a National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test, for students who score very high. It can also be used to practice and prepare for taking the SAT.
The deadline to sign up and pay is Friday, September 6th. Checks can be made out to Roxana High School.
Keep in mind, due to the new Illinois contract with ACT, we will be giving the ACT, not the SAT, in the spring to all juniors during the school day. We are no longer offering the SAT at RHS. Students wishing to take the SAT have to sign up to take it on a Saturday at a local testing center. Both ACT and SAT can be used for college entrance purposes. For more information, please contact Mrs. Garrison or Mrs. Hansen.
Thank you,
Mrs. Garrison (A - L)
