Panther Community, 

The eagerly awaited return of students to in-person classes is upon us! On Monday, half of our RHS students will return to classes and the second half will join us on Tuesday. We look forward to having everyone back in the halls and encourage all to remember to mask up, practice social distancing, and keep washing those hands so that we may continue to see one another in a face-to-face manner!
