On Friday, the RCHS Student Council hosted Freshman Orientation for RCMS and St. Joe 8th graders. The soon-to-be freshmen started their morning with introductions from administrators, Student Services staff, and Student Council members. Then they took tours of the building, learned about One Tiger Nation, and heard from current students about how to be successful and make the most out of their time in high school. We look forward to welcoming the Class of 2028 in August!
