There's no better way to kick off a Friday than by celebrating our Wow Wildcats! We have exceptional leaders throughout our school, and these seven students set a high standard for everyone to follow. They excel at helping younger students, maintaining a positive attitude, diligently working on their assignments, and assisting in every way possible. This week's Wow Wildcats are AWESOME!
Our 5th grade class has been reading the captivating novel Tuck Everlasting. Each student has put tremendous effort into completing their final projects, showcasing their creativity and understanding of the story. They invite you to take a look at some of the impressive projects! Well done, 5th grade — your hard work truly shines!!

To our Rush County Community,
As we continue to monitor developments from the Indiana State Legislature, we want to inform you about the latest impacts of Senate Bill 1 (SB 1) on property tax revenue and how it may affect school funding in the months and years ahead.
While we are still analyzing the full implications, SB 1 will likely result in reduced property tax collections for school corporations across the state. This change affects all taxing entities, including Rush County Schools.
Our goal remains clear and unchanged: to engage in responsible long-range financial planning that maintains a stable total tax rate while ensuring that all of our services, programs, and staffing remain at the highest levels.
We are committed to preserving the quality of education and support we provide to our students and families. Strategic planning will continue to be a priority as we assess how to manage this change and align our resources for long-term success.
Thank you for your continued support, trust, and partnership as we work to do what is best for the students of Rush County Schools.
Sincerely,
Mr. Jim Jameson Ed.S.
Superintendent
Rush County Schools
