History

As the Rockland area grew, a new log school was built in 1883 to provide enough room for the growing student population. In 1915, a new multi-story brick school building was built and housed the school until a storm and earthquake deemed it unusable in 1937. A new school was under construction but wasn't completed until the spring of 1938, so classes were held in two local churches and a community building. [1] The current building was built in 1994 and is home to grades K - 12. [8] According to the Idaho High School Activities Association (IHSAA), Rockland High School is one of the smallest schools in the state. [4]

Library

Since 1974, Rockland School has served as a School Community Library. It is just one of three such systems in the state with the other two being Sugar-Salem and Snake River School Community Libraries. [8] [9] [10] These libraries are public libraries established by school district electors for the benefit of the school as well as the citizens of the community. They operate as both a public library and school library. After 1994, no new School Community libraries can be created following legislation enactments. [11]

Athletics

Rockland Bulldogs compete in the 1A division, the smallest division in the IHSAA. They participate in the District V Rocky Mountain Conference. [6]
