NO SCHOOL - MEMORIAL DAY
There will be no school Monday, May 28 due to Memorial Day.
SPOTLIGHT ON INSTRUCTION
This week, U.S. History classes at RHS taught by Mrs. Kara Sears, Mrs. Christina Bettes, Mrs. Caylan Healy, and Mrs. Sarah Miesch, got the opportunity to hear from a Vietnam War veteran as part of their unit on the Vietnam War. Guest speaker Mr. Hal Commerson, who also taught and coached at RHS, discussed his experiences in the war and how it impacted his life. Through this, the students were better able to understand what this war was really like and gain more knowledge about it by asking Mr. Commerson questions. These sophomores had the opportunity to see how what they are learning about in class connects to the real world.
