RCSD Counts down to Class of 2023's Graduation and Ceremonies

The Rochester City School District (RCSD) congratulates the class of 2023 for reaching the significant graduation milestone. Students, families, staff, and friends will celebrate the successful moment in our seniors’ educational journeys this week.

To showcase the RCSD’s Class of 2023, the District has launched its second annual “Countdown to Graduation,” a series of short videos that feature a graduating senior from each high school who exemplifies the qualities of their school/program.

The graduating seniors share their experiences in the RCSD, including how their school has impacted their decisions for their future careers. The student profiles include valedictorians/salutatorians, scholar athletes, etc. The videos are available for viewing on the District’s YouTube page.
