It's Homecoming 2022 and we are getting "rowdy" at RCHS. Please join us tonight for the pep rally in the high school gym and bonfire to follow (south of the AG shop). We may have a special "surprise" from some of our varsity football players and some other very special guests! Time is TBA...we want to wait for the cross country team to get back. We are hoping to start around 8:00 PM. Another message will go out on social media when the cross country team leaves Lakeside.

RCHS Art Club will be providing FREE Face Painting before Friday’s Homecoming football game! Painting will start at 6:00pm by the Ag Shop!🏈 ❤️💙

Art one is crushing this tutorial! Don’t be fooled, it’s tough! Most have had to restart more than three times with out using a new paper. It’s taken weeks, but we are learning to see and mix colors beautifully!!! So proud of these students.
Only a few years were shed during the making of these paintings…😉
