RCHS anatomy students are learning about the largest organ of the human body, skin. Using a variety of lab techniques, they have the opportunity to investigate hair structure, fingerprints, and the deeper layers beneath the skin's surface.

Travel Club would like to thank local State Farm Agent, Jennifer Barthelemy, for donating water to RCHS. The water will be sold at athletic events to for fundraising efforts for the travel club students' trips to Costa Rica in 2026 and Iceland in 2027.

The RCHS College & Careers class has kicked off their 2026 Community Service Project, “Picture Perfect,” and we couldn’t be more excited! Students are already hard at work planning, moving, cleaning, organizing, and collaborating to make a meaningful impact for our school, athletic programs, and our community. Be sure to check back for updates and progress as we share their journey and how the community can help. We can’t wait to show you what they accomplish!

A huge “thank you” to Mrs. Julian, our RCHS Librarian, for visiting the College & Careers class today. She introduced a great selection of books to support students in their personal growth journeys, from building confidence to developing leadership and life skills.
We are grateful for her time, her passion for reading, and the way she connects our students with resources that will help them grow both in and out of the classroom.

A huge thank-you to Gina Kocher from TrustBank for visiting the College & Careers class at RCHS! Gina shared valuable insight on the importance of volunteering in your community and how giving back can open doors to new opportunities, relationships, and personal growth. We appreciate her time and inspiration!
