Dr. Curtis Cain, Superintendent of the Rockwood School District, discussed the 2024-2025 school year, highlighting a new teacher contract and weather-related school closures. He detailed a pilot cell phone ban in Rockwood, which received positive feedback. The Missouri House passed a bill prohibiting cell phone use by students from bell to bell, which Dr. Cain noted could impact local policies. He emphasized the importance of local control and the need for flexibility in emergencies. Dr. Cain also addressed the national teacher shortage, attributing it to population shifts and university closures of education programs. Rockwood's strategic plan focuses on nurturing learning, fiscal responsibility, highly qualified staff, and safe, caring schools.
