RHHS Wildcats News You Can Use

On this Veterans Day, I want to express my deepest gratitude to all the brave men and women who have served and sacrificed for our freedom. Your courage, dedication, and selflessness inspire us all. Thank you for your service to our country. We are forever grateful for the sacrifices you've made to protect the values and liberties we hold dear. May we always honor and remember the tremendous contributions of our veterans.

With the semester coming quickly to an end, I am hopeful that you have noticed the growth in your own personal students as we have certainly taken note here at RHHS. One major positive that we have noted is that student attendance has shown vast improvements over the past few years (ever Pre-COVID); when students are in school learning happens and growth occurs. Please continue to check in on your students progress via PS as we round out the semester and set our sights on a successful ending!

In an effort to gain your feedback and perspective with regards to RHHS, the GADOE annually sends out a survey to collect parent perspective (additional information below on the scheduled student survey).
