Congratulations to these Seniors for obtaining their CDL this school year! This is a great opportunity for Senior students to take the CDL course through Cloud County to prepare them for the written test. Once they pass the written test, they practice driving with the instructor to prepare them for the driving part of the CDL exam.
Cloud County Instructor Kelly Kemp did an excellent job preparing these boys for the tests!
Students included: Collin Dahl, Garrett Siemsen, Gentry Thomas, Ryan Beavers, Trey Melton and Brandon Allen.


ATTENTION SOFTBALL PARENTS AND FANS:
Ellis High School made a mistake and told us our location was changed for softball tomorrow. However, they were supposed to be contacting Sylvan Grove due to the Salina location changing. They and us as well apologize for the confusion.
SOFTBALL IS AT ELLIS TOMORROW, 2:00 PM VS. HAYS-TMP.
RCHS Baseball played in Hutchinson today against Ell Saline in first round regional play losing 3-7.



Golf ended their season at Regionals in Hoxie today. It was a very tough Regional, no Buffaloes qualified for State. The team placed 7th, individually Kaden Novak-17th, Trey Melton-23rd, Benedict Baxa-36th, Austin Scrivner-37th, Collin Dahl-40th, Damon Haberstroh-41st.

CHANGE IN SOFTBALL FOR TOMORROW: Games will be played in Salina at the Salina South Field, still 2:00 against Hays-TMP.
Enjoy the shorter travel time and go support our Lady Buffs!
The high school art room has stepped back to the renaissance! We spent all last week preparing a protein base for our paper. Today we dipped our leaves in an iron mordant that we started back in October, then rolled our paper and leaves into bundles. Each bundle had to spend 2 hours in our botanical bath. Once out of the bath we unrolled the bundles, removed the leaves, and were left with some amazing botanical prints! We plan to adorn them this final week before we closed down the studio. Can’t wait to explore this technique more next fall! 🍃




CHANGE IN BASEBALL FOR TODAY:
Baseball is still in Hutchinson today, but the start time is 4:00 pm due to wet field. If we win, will play again right after. Go Buffs!
Baseball begins Regional play today at Hutchinson. The field is the Hobart-Detter Field.
Good luck Buffs!

Good luck to our golfers at Regionals today at Hoxie!

Congratulations to the RCHS Class of 2023! Commencement is today at 2:00 pm in the high school gym.
