April RFHS Wildcats Newsletter

April 11, 2025
Message from the Principal
Greetings Wildcat Students and Families,
Prom
Spring is here, even if the weather doesn't quite agree! We're looking forward to the upcoming High School Prom in just two short weeks. Please see the flyer below for all the details. A quick reminder: Any student wishing to bring a guest from another school must complete a Guest Registration Form, available in the Main Office.
Fees
Please take a moment to review your student’s account in Infinite Campus for any outstanding fees. Many students have fees for courses, damaged Chromebooks, lost course/library books, and parking tickets. Payments can be made via cash or check at the Main Office. Checks should be made out to River Falls High School.
Future Week (April 22 - 24)
Future Week provides a fantastic opportunity for students to explore their next steps after high school. Representatives from colleges, universities, businesses, and military branches will be available during all three lunches to answer questions and provide information about potential career and education paths. Encourage your student(s) to stop by, ask questions, and start planning for their future! We look forward to a fun, inspiring and informative Future Week!
Graduation
The order deadline for 2025 Senior Class T-shirts is May 1st. These shirts will be delivered to students during the last week of school and are typically worn on the final day of school as well as at the Senior Class Party on Friday, May 30 (9:45 PM - Saturday, May 31, 3:00 AM) at MMS. Please note, the Senior Class Party is exclusive to seniors.
Additionally, please ensure you are reviewing the "Class of 2025 Graduation Central" section of the newsletter, which includes all graduation events, dates, and times.
Thank you for your continued support! Please reach out with any questions, and have a wonderful weekend!
Best regards,
RFHS Administrative Team
