Congratulations to August's RCHS Student of the Month, Aryana De Leon.
Aryana, 12th Grade, has a cumulative GPA of 3.78 and is currently a member of the Pep Club, Key Club, Culture Club, FFA, and Art clubs. She is also a member of the Wrestling and Golf teams.
Here is what Mrs. Krohn had to say about Aryana:

Here is what Miss Netterman had to say:
• “Wow, where do I start? Aryana’s growth and excitement to try new things is contagious. She is a great role model for her peers and has started her senior year Strong! ”
Here is what Miss Pickering had to say:
• “Goes above and beyond expectation Respectful toward peers & faculty Willingness to help others. Aryana is an outstanding student. She is always cheerful and eager to help me in any way that I need. She goes the extra mile with everything she does, and having her as my aide is one of the best parts of my day.”
Congratulations again to Aryana.

Due to lingering heat forecasted, our Fall Preview scrimmage tonight has been postponed to tomorrow at 5:30 at the grade school. We will have an indoor practice at RCGS tonight, potentially moving to limited outdoor practice later. Practice will be over at 5:00. MS and HS Volleyball will continue as scheduled for this evening.
All parents and patrons are welcome to attend tomorrow at 5:30. Bring a lawn chair to the grade school and cheer on our football players!

A change in our upcoming schedule. Tuesday 9/10/24's split triangular with Abilene and Marysville will continue to be held with the 7th grade portion being played at Riley County. However, due to officials scheduling, the 8th grade portion has been moved to Abilene instead of Marysville. This only affects 8th grade, as 7th grade is still scheduled for playing at home.

A message from Cosch Maynard regarding Jr. Falcon wrestling camp…
“Hello everyone we are closely approaching the deadline to register for the inaugural Jr. Falcon wrestling camp. The deadline to get signed up is July 1st.
If you are on the fence about the sport of wrestling or are curious about what it is please come to this camp. It is always good to try something new and to get your kids out of their comfort zone. If you are already signed up, get a friend to sign up with you!
Please see the attached flyer for more information and registration. My contact information is on there as well. Please do not hesitate to reach out if you need anything or have any questions!
Thanks,
Coach Maynard
