The halls of Rockfish River Elementary School came alive yesterday morning with the sights and sounds of a new school year. From the moment the first buses and cars pulled up, students were greeted with cheerful waves, warm hugs, and streams of bubbles drifting through the air.
Parents waved goodbye, teachers knelt for eye-level hellos, and friends reunited with wide grins that needed no words. The school’s signature eagle spirit was on full display, as staff members welcomed each child enthusiastically.
By the time the last wave of students headed to their classrooms, the bubbles had drifted away—but the feeling of celebration lingered. For Rockfish River Eagles, the 2025–2026 school year is already off to a soaring start.
