Senior Meetings Held This Week

I met with most seniors during their English classes on Monday, August 17 (Caffrey and Colvin) or Tuesday, August 18 (Corey, Pauling, Land, Thomas, Carlisle, George) in the auditorium. We reviewed this presentation and spent a lot of time familiarizing ourselves with the application process, how to request teacher recommendations and transcripts, seniors' role versus mine and the counselors' roles, financial aid and more.

We also discussed sharing class rank with colleges, and most students made that selection in SchooLinks. For students who wish to share their June rank and not their September rank, they need to follow these steps before September 4.

For students under 18, their parent (listed as "Guardian 1" in Skyward) needs to sign their SchooLinks FERPA waiver, giving RPHS permission to share their student's documents and information with colleges. No action can be taken by RPHS on the student's behalf without this step. An email came from susanna.jakubik@fortbendisd.gov on Wednesday, August 12 titled "ACTION REQUIRED For Your RPHS Senior" with instructions.

Senior Makeup Meeting

For students attending Reese or who were absent on Monday or Tuesday, makeup meetings will be held in K145 on Friday, August 21 during 1st and 6th. Students should come directly to K145 with their fully charged laptop to attend the meeting. This is an excused absence.

Senior Parent Meeting Tuesday, August 25

All senior parents are invited to attend the 2027 senior parent meeting on Tuesday, August 25 at 6:00 p.m. in the RPHS Commons. We will discuss applications, financial aid, letters of recommendation, transcripts, fun senior activities and more.

The 2027 RPHS Open House will start directly following this presentation.
