Mrs. Burris's spring Calculus students have been working towards their "derivers" license. They have taken a short derivative quiz every day for the past month. The quizzes focused on the power, product, quotient, and chain rules for derivatives, with each quiz increasing in difficulty. These students are all derivative pros and have officially earned their de-rivers license! 🚗✏️📈

The updated Weekly Bulletin has a few corrections: The Marching Band Parent Meeting for tonight is at 6 (not 5). The Fairfield baseball game tonight will be played at Musgrove on the senior field, not at OCC.

RCHS Art Department students spend time eyeing the hallway for their perspective drawings.

Vivian from Distress Bandanna came in yesterday to speak to our driver ed classes about the importance of safety on the roadways and talked about what to do in a situation where you may encounter downed powerlines while in your vehicle.

The RCHS FCS department has been very productive in March. Intro to FCS classes finished sewing their own pillows, and Interior Design students perfected their dream home projects.

A big thank you to the local organizations that hosted our College & Careers students for their second rotation of volunteer hours!
