Hello Mustangs Families!
We hope you all had a wonderful Homecoming Weekend!
The bite of winter is definitely in the air as our focus starts to turn to the holidays.
Your RHS PTSA is very excited about our upcoming Holiday Bazaar. This is a wonderful annual community event that you don't want to miss. Sign up soon if you are interested in being one of our vendors - tables are selling fast!
Mark your calendars - December 14!
Another reminder as the weather changes - students, parents, and school visitors,
please turn off your engines while waiting in the parking lots. We understand it is getting chilly but RHS is now an Idle Free Zone, so help us keep our air clean and shut your engines off!
Thank you for your continued support!
GO STANGS!
Sincerely,
Meredith Cain and Michelle Obenaus
RHS PTSA Co-Presidents

COMING SOON
:
NO IDLE ZONES @ RHS
LWSD is implementing No Idle Zones at all schools this year. Signage has been placed at all Elementary Schools. Over winter break signage at Middle and High Schools will be installed. As the temperature drops the temptation to keep the engine running while waiting for students is high. Please use restraint by turning off your engine while waiting at school or neighborhood bus drop-off/pickup areas. PLEASE bring this topic to the attention of your driving age students. Sitting in a warm car before school is very tempting (and currently observed). Promoting the idea of saving money on gas may be an incentive to turn off the engine.
