Parents/Guardians,

Students that are not picked up by 12:30 PM, will be bussed to the high school for the remainder of the day. Parents are welcome to pick their students up at the high school. Students will be located in Ron Herrin Gym, please pick students up at the West entrance of the gym. If students are still at RCHS at the end of the day, students will be bussed home on their regular bus.

This past weekend, six students traveled to Mt. Carmel for IGSMA Solo/Ensemble Contest and we are very proud to say that each student earned a 1st place score. Those students were:
Alaina Parker
Cheyenne Anderson
Joe Hunt
Camden Poland
Emma Gilreath
Sophie Combs
Two students in particular earned scores high enough to place them in what is called the "superior" category- Joe Hunt (twice with a piano and trumpet solo) and Camden Poland with a snare solo.
RCMS is very proud!! Way to go!!
