Principal’s Corner
This is one of my favorite times of the year as we start off the school year on a positive note and the freshman, Class of 2022, have been welcomed into our school community. We are looking forward to another excellent year as our faculty and staff continue to maintain high academic expectations for our students. A special emphasis will be placed on a growth mindset and the idea of developing grit and determination to use challenges to help students grow and learn. We also encourage students to participate in our outstanding extra-curricular activities including the fine arts, athletics, and student organizations to ensure a well-rounded education.
During the first couple weeks of the school year, Dr. Arason, Mr. Bina, and I will be visiting all of the freshman, sophomore, junior and senior students. We will review the rules and expectations of our Red River students regarding appropriate behavior in conjunction with our school mission statement of ”…educating all students in a safe and respectful environment.” Areas of emphasis will continue to be the acceptable use of technology, the detention policy, appropriate student behavior at extra-curricular activities, and the student dress code/personal appearance.
Finally, please make note of the following upcoming dates:
Thank you for your continued support of Red River High School.
Sincerely,
Mr. Darin J. Walters
