Greetings Mustangs!
There was a great turn out for curriculum night and the Spanish Information Night! Thank you to all the parents and RHS staff in attendance, the Leadership students for helping parents navigate their way throughout the school, the PTSA for providing staff dinner, and the volunteer parents that helped make the night a success.
Your PTSA's main fundraising campaign,
Pass The Hat, is underway! Our goal is to raise $25,000 to support all that we do for our RHS community. Consider a donation to Pass The Hat through our website. If your employer matches non-profit donations, please submit your donation for matching dollars. Your donation can be twice as effective! Thank you to all who have donated to Pass The Hat thus far.
Exciting events are on the horizon! RHS PTSA is sponsoring the
Holiday Bazaar, Saturday, December 14th! Mark your calendars. This is a great opportunity to support local vendors and do some holiday shopping! Are you a vendor looking for Bazaar space? Please see our flyer for more information. Holiday Bazaar proceeds will benefit the PTSA & ASB.
And, finally, if you haven't already done so,
become a PTSA member today and make your voice heard as a member of the Mustang Community
Sincerely,
Meredith Cain and Michelle Obenaus
RHS PTSA Co-Presidents

FALL SAT & ACT PRACTICE TESTS
RHS PTSA sponsors SAT and ACT Practice Tests each year.
These full-length practice tests, administered by The Princeton Review, offer students the opportunity to practice test taking strategies and determine baseline scores prior to taking the official SAT and ACT college entrance exams. Tests results are provided back to the students in the form of a detailed Score Report that identifies individual strengths and areas for improvement.
Registration may be limited based on facility or proctor constraints, please register early and/or volunteer to help proctor an exam. This year's fall dates are:
Practice ACT Test Session: Saturday, September 28, 2019, 9 am - 12:45 pm. Strategy Session follows on Tuesday, October 8, 2019, 6:30 - 8:00 p.m.

RHS LADY MUSTANGS BOOSTERS
Every fall as school begins the basketball booster club sponsors "Fall Training" for those girls that are not participating in a fall sport. This is a great opportunity for players to begin conditioning and get ready for a fast and furious basketball season.
This fall -- 2019 -- the booster club is excited to announce our training program for 9 weeks before the season begins. Fall Training will begin the week of 9/16 and go right up to tryouts for basketball. As all returning players know --- the time is now to get in shape!!!
The athletes will train with a variety of people to build their strength, hone their skills, and learn game time strategies.
This may also include competing in a local basketball league!
In years past the booster club asks for all participants to help in defraying the cost of all of this training. This year the booster club is asking that each player pay $125.00 to the booster club for the "Fall Training Program". We have set up a link on our website and ask that each player register and pay on line, please use the link below. In addition each player will need to have the attached waiver signed and submitted before she can participate.
We never want to make this a family hardship, so if a player needs a scholarship please reach out to our treasurer Jeff Spelman. All requests will be kept confidential.
We hope the girls embrace this opportunity and get excited about the upcoming season. Go Stangs!!
