These two are the perfect mix of safety, mentorship, leadership… and a whole lot of fun! They keep our campus safe, build amazing relationships with our students, and somehow still manage to bring smiles and positive energy every single day.
We’re lucky to have not just great officers, but two all-around awesome humans serving our school community. Thank you for everything you do — we appreciate you more than you know! 🚀❤️

🚀 𝐖𝐞𝐥𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐑𝐨𝐬𝐞 𝐇𝐢𝐥𝐥, 𝐌𝐫. 𝐑𝐨𝐞!
Rose Hill School District is proud to announce the hiring of 𝐌𝐫. 𝐁𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐨𝐧 𝐑𝐨𝐞 as the new principal of Rose Hill Middle School, beginning in the 2026–27 school year, following the well-deserved retirement of Mr. Robertson.
With nearly 20 years in education, Mr. Roe brings a relationship-driven, hands-on leadership style and a deep commitment to helping students thrive both academically and beyond the classroom.
“𝘔𝘺 𝘧𝘢𝘮𝘪𝘭𝘺 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘐 𝘪𝘮𝘮𝘦𝘥𝘪𝘢𝘵𝘦𝘭𝘺 𝘧𝘦𝘭𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘸𝘢𝘴 𝘢 𝘱𝘭𝘢𝘤𝘦 𝘸𝘦’𝘥 𝘭𝘰𝘷𝘦 𝘵𝘰 𝘤𝘢𝘭𝘭 𝘩𝘰𝘮𝘦,” Roe shared. “𝘞𝘦’𝘳𝘦 𝘩𝘰𝘯𝘰𝘳𝘦𝘥 𝘵𝘰 𝘣𝘦 𝘱𝘢𝘳𝘵 𝘰𝘧 𝘢 𝘤𝘰𝘮𝘮𝘶𝘯𝘪𝘵𝘺 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘵𝘳𝘶𝘭𝘺 𝘤𝘢𝘳𝘦𝘴 𝘢𝘣𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘬𝘪𝘥𝘴.”
Mr. Roe looks forward to building strong connections with students, staff, and families and even hopes to launch a monthly community coffee meet-up: “Cup of Joe with Roe.” ☕
Please join us in welcoming Mr. Roe, his wife Ashley, and their family to Rose Hill!
And yes… when asked Chiefs or Broncos, he boldly answered: “Absolutely GO BRONCOS!” 😄🏈
We’ll try to forgive him… welcome to Chiefs Kingdom, Roe family!
