RHS Parent Club
Each year the Parent-Teacher Organization Council (PTOC) hosts a luncheon for the bus drivers and paraprofessionals in the District. Traditionally each school is asked to put together two gift baskets given away at the luncheons. Anyone who wishes to donate to support the upcoming luncheon to celebrate our district's bus drivers and parapros, please use this link to sign-up:

2025-2026 FAFSA Form
The 2025-26 FAFSA is open. All current seniors planning to attend college should be working with their parents/guardians to complete this online application. The FAFSA form connects students to various forms of Federal and State financial aid programs. FAFSA is required for most State of Michigan financial aid programs, including the Michigan Achievement Scholarship. For example, students who complete the FAFSA will have access to free community college tuition through Michigan’s Community College Guarantee, which has no income criteria. Students can complete the FAFSA at StudentAid.gov. For additional information about the FAFSA, please visit our FAFSA resources page. The state of Michigan also offers helpful online presentations that families may register for.
