Here is what Sam Netterman had to say:
Jack is a go-getter! He is involved in our school and attacks every day with a positive attitude. He is a joy to teach and is a great role model for his peers. He also takes chances, which is so fun to see students doing!
Here is what Erin Lloyd had to say:
Jack is the All-Star you want on every team. He commits to his myriad of activities, shows up prepared, and then helps everyone around him with a positive attitude.
Here is what Melanie Scott had to say:
I have only known Jack a short time since I started here at RCHS. However, from day one, he has treated me with respect and always checks in with me first to see if I need help with anything. He jumps right in with the task and completes it.
He is involved in many extra-curricular activities, including a large role in the recent school musical. His hard work ethic and positive disposition help him balance classwork, including dual credit, along with all his other activities.
Here is what Jayme Krohn had to say:
Jack brings such positive energy to every class he is in! He is always upbeat and brings much-needed humor to our school :)
We also thank Blue Crew for giving our Student of the Month a $20 gift certificate.
Congratulations again to Jack.

We want to congratulate Anna Lambert for being RCHS/Glavan Ford Student-Athlete of the Month for October. Anna is the daughter of Chuck and Kimberly Lambert. Anna is a 4.0 student who has been a member of the Cross Country, Basketball, and Track teams. She is also a member of NHS, Key Club, Pep Club, and SADD. Her Cross Country coach had this to say about her, "Anna is the ideal student athlete. She comes to practice every single day with an attitude and mindset that the rest of the team feeds off of. She works extremely hard and is always looking for ways to encourage and help others on the team. When it comes to a meet, she is an absolute competitor. She has finished in the top 15 of almost every meet this year and ran a season-best time, which helped her qualify for state at our regional meet. Anna is the type of student-athlete that every coach wishes to have on their team. I cannot say enough good things about her."
