Join the Theatre Arts pathway in watching The Neverending Story (Atreyu and the Great Quest) as part of their production unit. During this unit in class, students are assessed with both formative and summative assessments ranging from blocking to performance per our standards. They learn how a full production is put together with lighting design, sound design, costume design, set design, stage managing, acting, and directing.

Told with all the thrills of a classic adventure, the story begins with Bastian, a lonely boy, who stumbles into a curious bookshop where he discovers a curious book—The Neverending Story. Bastian hides in the attic of his school and begins to read, and a huge adventure surges into life. Fantastica, a land of stories, is being destroyed by the Nothing. The Childlike Empress has chosen Atreyu, a young hunter, to be the Hero of the Great Quest. Follow Atreyu and Bastian on their great adventure!

In anticipation of the December 1, 2024, opening day for the 2025-2026 school year Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA), we want to encourage Richmond Hill High School seniors and parents/guardians to create a FAFSA profile, one for the high school senior and one for parents/guardians. Please know that ANY student who wants to be considered for federal, state, and/or school financial aid programs (including grants, scholarships, work-study funds, and loans) must have a completed FAFSA. The deadlines for scholarships begin in January of 2025, so please do not hesitate.

A step-by-step guide to completing the FAFSA process is linked on the RHHS School Counseling Department website.

At the age of 16, Georgia requires that your student receive the booster to the MCV4 vaccine.

If they do not receive the MCV4 booster on or after the age of 16, their immunization record, Certificate of Immunization (Form 3231), will expire.

If you have not already scheduled an appointment for your student to get their vaccines updated, please contact your healthcare provider or the Bryan County Health Department at 912-756-2611 to arrange the MCV4 booster.

Meningococcal disease is a serious bacterial illness that affects the brain and causes shock, coma and death within hours of the first symptoms. Georgia law requires students be vaccinated against this disease.

Please provide an updated copy of the Certificate of Immunization (Form 3231) once the MCV4 booster is completed. This document will become a part of your student’s permanent record once it is received by the RHHS clinic staff.

Contact your healthcare provider or the Bryan County Health Department with any questions related to the MCV4 Booster.
