Christmas is upon us! This is the last week of the semester before Final Exams. Down in the Links and Announcement section I have posted the final exam schedule. This has been an amazing semester and a great first half of the school year. I am sure next semester will be just as amazing all because of the students and staff of RCHS as well all of you that make up this great community. I also want to point out that the State came out of the final version of the new Diploma rule. This will have an affect on current 8th graders and all students thereafter. We will be having information meetings and will be continuing to update all stakeholders as more information is released. Everyone have a great weekend and thank goodness IT'S ALMOST MONDAY!!!

The State Board of Education unanimously approved the final diploma rule that will be in place for current 8th graders. You can see these requirements clicking the link below. RCHS will be holding informative sessions regarding these diploma changes in January. More information will be shared as we get closer to that time.
