The most recent federal data show that in the 2020-21 school year, at least 14.7 million students nationwide were chronically absent. This means that chronic absence has almost doubled from the more than 8 million students, pre-Covid-19, who were missing so many days of school that they were academically at risk. Chronic absence — missing 10 percent or more of school days due to absence for any reason—excused, unexcused absences, and suspensions—can translate into students having difficulty learning to read by the third grade, achieving in middle school, and graduating from high school.

Dear Gryphon Students, It is bittersweet that I bid you farewell as I enter retirement. I want to say you have been my life's work, and I have enjoyed every moment with you, trying to make a difference. I know I was not perfect as your principal, but please know that I tried to be an ideal father to all of you. Yes, I said father because I approached each day trying to care for every student I have ever come in contact with as if they were my daughter. When my daughter was growing up (and still today), not only did I make sure she was safe and secure first, but I always tried to teach and mold her by providing her with the foundational things that would help her be successful in life and to be a good person. So, as I move on past these school walls of Rocky Mount High School, I wish to leave you with this: If you ever begin to wonder why Mr. Colvin spent so many years working with young people, it is because I wanted to do the same thing someone did for me when I was a student. My teachers and other staff were phenomenal when I was in elementary, middle, and high school. Those people played a tremendous role in shaping who I became as an individual, and I never forgot that. The lesson is this: honor and respect the faculty and staff who show up every day to make a difference in your young lives. Your teachers and staff members are the most under-appreciated people in the workforce, but they have the most important job of taking care of you. If you ever want to let me know that I made a difference in your life, then let me hear about how you honor, respect, and appreciate the people standing before you every day - your teachers and other staff members. Thanks, and Godspeed, my Gryphon Students. Mr. Colvin
