Dear RHTA Families,
It is hard to believe that this school year is almost over! The last 2 months of school are filled with learning, special events, and community immersions! I hope that you were able to safely enjoy the eclipse last week thanks to our 8th graders. Here is the data that Coach Detmar collected. Be on the lookout for returning learner confirmations. I'm looking forward to an exciting end of the school year!

The survey will run for five weeks, from April 8 to May 13, 2024.
Please find the following important information regarding the food service program survey. The survey is an electronic form that can be filled out easily on any device and takes less than 10 minutes to complete.
