Summer Learning Registration

Registration for the RCM summer learning program is now available. This program is open to all rising seventh though twelfth graders and is an enrichment program designed to prevent academic summer slide. It is not a high school credit recovery program. High school students that need to recover credit should speak with their guidance counselor.

A Message from Our Principal

Dear Families,

I’m proud of our students and their accomplishments, and our dedicated staff members work hard every day to bring the best learning opportunities possible to our student body. Evident by the many and varied clubs and extracurricular activities our students participate in throughout the school year, our administrative team, faculty, and staff put an extraordinary amount of time and effort into making sure our students’ needs come first.

I encourage parents and families to be involved in your child’s homework and in our school events. My door is always open to you, so please stop by if you ever have any questions.

Sincerely,

Scott Hemlin
