Joni has been so welcoming to our new staff members. Many of them comment on how she has been so beneficial in their transition to RCHS. Joni has an upbeat personality and is a phenomenal educator. We are so lucky to have her at RCHS!
STUDENT OF THE MONTH
CONGRATULATIONS LACEY MADDEN!!!!!
Lacie Madden was nominated by Mrs. Hoeing. Mrs. Hoeing says the following about Lacie "I have Lacie on Red and Black Days and she pushes herself very hard on every project she has done so far. She does a great job of accomplishing each small task to work towards completing big-picture goals. She has recently created a zombie bank, a heart-and-rose mobile, and ceramic plates. She's done a great job at overcoming obstacles that she's faced and persevered each time. She has grown so much since I first met her three years ago!"
