RHS Pep Band
The Mighty Blue Waves Pep Band, under the direction of Mrs. Lisa Talmage, has had a tremendously successful 2021 Season. The 50-member-strong group hit the ground running the very first day of school and didn't look back. The newly formed RHS Drumline showed off their skills and took the band to a whole new level. They played for the home Varsity Football games, rocked the Pep Rally and even played for one of the Varsity Boys Soccer games. Along with playing in the stadium stands, they performed various tunes for the half-time shows including Hawaii Five-O, Crazy Train, Star Wars, Led Zeppelin's Rock and Roll, Ghostbusters and Thriller. They look forward to doing it all again next year!
Club Activities- Safe Halloween
The Key Club sponsored a Safe Halloween event on Sunday, October 31 from 5pm - 7pm at RHS. The Art club, Hispanic Leadership Club, NJROTC and other clubs assisted in transforming classrooms into rooms with displays and activities, as well as creating a carnival in the cafeteria with games and prizes. Children were able to exit through a spooky walk, and take home a pumpkin.
Congratulations, AP Scholars!
