A MESSAGE FROM THE HEAD OF SCHOOL
|
Thank You #1
Husky parents!
Yes, I mean you!
As we edge towards the end of another successful year on and around the Husky campus I want to thank you for all the great work you have done to support us and support your children in our combined endeavors this year. Our mission includes the phrase "working in partnership" and we rely on and thrive with that theme.
We could not do it without you.
|
|
They (our students) could not do it without you.
So . . .
Please come along to Hey 19 next Friday evening, June 2, from 6:00 to 8:00 p.m., so we may show our appreciation for all your support this year. Click here for more info.

Senior dinner, the night before Commencement, is a unique part of
|
|
RHP/Ren Commencement Week. Because it is understood and accepted that everyone attends, you have already paid for your student's ticket with your graduation fee. We don't want to give too much away, but let's just say that one or two informal and lighthearted traditions take place at this dinner, and, well, it's not to be missed! No other school does it quite like this!

RHP Seniors Lead STEM Initiative at Local Elementary School
RHP seniors Rafi Bernal and Chris Kitchen have been prominent leaders in the school's robotics programs for seven years, starting with Lego Robotics in middle school and moving through FIRST Tech Challenge and then FIRST Robotics Challenge programs during high school. This year they took their technical and engineering knowledge and expertise on the road.
|
|
After recognizing a lack of STEM education at nearby underserved schools, the two boys took the initiative to launch their own non-profit organization, First GEAR Robotics, a program which specializes in teaching hands-on robotics courses to local elementary schools.
