RJHS FOOD DRIVE
It's FOOD DRIVE time! Let's help restock the RCC food bank and possibly win some donuts. The competition is going on now through December 16th with the learning lab who collects the most items winning a donut party. Here is a list of items to donate if you need some good ideas. May the most generous learning lab win!
Dr. Notes
Students are only allowed 6 Parent Excuses (AE) per school year, so please make sure that Doctor’s notes are being brought to the Jr High office after the appointment. That note will change that absence in Skyward from a parent excuse - AE to a doctor excuse. After they have used all 6 parent excuses, they will be counted as unexcused - AU.
RJHS Volleyball
Players MUST be registered on RSchool AND have an updated physical to try out.
7th and 8th Grade Tryouts will be: Tuesday, December 13th from 3:15-5:00 pm AND Wednesday, December 14th from 5:00-6:30 pm in the junior high school gym. Players are encouraged to attend both days of tryouts.

On-demand health services include:
Medical treatment: For stomach aches, headaches, sprained ankles, asthma concerns, and everything in between
Medication: Prescriptions written or over-the-counter provided at school when needed
Coordination: With family physician and return to school communications
