Fall events have begun early this September, kicking it off with our first home football game against Sunset. As well as Volleyball games, Boys and Girls Soccer, and Boys Cross Country. Every fall sport will have a night to end the season and celebrate graduating seniors with friends & family coming out to support! This will likely be hosted on the last home game of the season. On Saturday, September 28th, we’ll have a two hour fall Day of Service starting at 10:00 am for students and the community to come out and work to maintain our school and surrounding areas!
As homecoming is approaching, so are the activities! On October 4th at 4:30 p.m. in the West Parking Lot, the community is invited for RHS’s annual barbeque. Additionally, tailgate activities will be held by the Softball Field at 5:00 p.m., followed by the kickoff of Roosevelt vs. Lincoln at 7:00 p.m..
