Spring has Sprung and while some are winding down, others are gearing up for the last few months of school.  Graduation announcements have arrived; softball, baseball and track are underway; and Spring Testing is right around the corner.  The RBHS Maroon & White Staff want to keep you, our readers, in the loop.  So, check out the details that follow to stay on top of the changing events.

Guest Speaker:

RBHS will yet again, be honored to welcome back Kevin Brooks and his “Wiggle Your Toes” presentations to present to our student body on Wednesday, April 3.  Mr. Brooks will be here presenting on Distracted Driving and bringing his message home to students right before Prom season.

Spring Testing:

RBHS has been preparing for the Spring testing season for quite a while.  Teachers and Junior students have been spending their Tuesday and Thursday afternoons and Saturday mornings trying to get in some extra SAT practice, and the rest of RBHS has been preparing within their classes.  Spring testing will take place on Tuesday, April 9th.  Juniors will be taking the SAT and both freshmen and sophomores with be taking the PSAT.  Seniors will be off finishing up whatever plans must be finished for them to begin the next phase of life — college or career information.

Unless it is raining, you can find the softball, baseball, and track teams outside and busy every day of the week.  These dedicated athletes are practicing and performing at the best level possible — often practicing inside when the Spring weather hits.  We’d love to post the schedules, but with the weather, our schedules change every day.  So, check out the RBHS website for information related to sporting events.
