This has been another busy week at RHS. Our seniors ordered their Cap & Gown, 8th graders visited our CTE program, our athletic program celebrated their fall seasons, and our student coaches started coaching their little dribbler teams.
We have a busy weekend ahead as eight different groups compete in their events this Friday and Saturday. Go Tigers!
Have a great weekend!
