RHHS Wildcats News You Can Use

Happy Sunday Funday, Wildcat Family!

This week we are pulling out all the stops for a fan-favorite… Student Appreciation Week! And honestly, why wouldn’t we? Our students are the reason. They are our why. They’re the motivation behind every early morning, every late night, and every ounce of energy we pour into education. The future shines a little brighter because of the time we get to spend learning and growing together here at RHHS.

As you read through this week’s newsletter, you’ll notice a wide range of opportunities and experiences taking place across our campus. One that resonates with me personally, both as a full-time parent and educator, is the sports physical opportunity we’re offering. We all know how challenging it can be to juggle busy schedules with doctor availability, so we’re hoping this helps lighten that load and provides convenient access for our families. Beyond that, there is no shortage of ways for students and families to get involved. From Rising Senior Night, Prom and Promposals, Post-Secondary Planning, Military Dependent Ventures, the Blood Drive, Recycled Art Contest, International Travel opportunities, and more, there is something happening around every corner here at RHHS.

I hope this weekly sneak peek into the many things happening beyond the daily classroom experience proves both helpful and informative. If there are items you would like to see more of or ideas on how we can better serve our Wildcat community, please share your feedback through the Heard on the Hill Form at the bottom of the newsletter. I’m always happy to connect and listen.

As we wrap up another nine-week grading period, I’d encourage you to take a quick moment to check your child’s PowerSchool account. A brief look at attendance and current academic standing can go a long way in making sure students are on track and getting the support they need to finish the fourth nine weeks strong.

See ya, love ya, bye!

Car-rider/parent drop-off information - Click Here

• If you are dropping off a car rider, please stay in the right lane and keep the left lane open when entering the round-a-bout for our student drivers.
• When dropping your child off in the morning and when picking them up in the afternoon, we kindly ask that you pull all the way down to the sidewalk right before the student parking lot B entry and ensure that your child is ready to unload as soon as you stop. This will allow for us to clear Belfast Keller and keep traffic rolling. Is it further than curbside drop-off? Yes. Is it going to allow for more cars to drop off at once? Yes. Is it a safe alternative? Absolutely. We appreciate you working with us so we can clear the car line in a timely fashion.
• If I arrive with my child prior to the 7am opening of school can they disembark from the car? Yes. We would appreciate you going ahead and letting them out. They are welcome to wait outside in the front of the school or step into the air conditioned foyer of the building prior to all-staff arrival.
