Dear RHS Families,

Welcome to a brand new school year at RHS! On behalf of the PTSA, we’re delighted to extend a warm welcome to our returning families and a heartfelt greeting to those joining our community for the first time. We hope your summer was filled with relaxation, adventure, and meaningful time with loved ones.

As we begin the 2025–2026 school year, our PTSA remains committed to supporting RHS students in every facet of their academic journey—whether that’s in the classroom, during flex time, or as they plan for the future.

To achieve this, we will continue to provide mini-grant funding to support both faculty initiatives and student-led organizations. Last year, we proudly responded to requests that enriched students’ experiences with meaningful learning opportunities, and we look forward to building on that momentum this year. We’ll also be partnering with Student Life to help students pursue and achieve their personal and academic goals.

We’re excited to bring back two of our most valued events this year:

• Parent-to-Parent College Panel – Join us this October to hear from RHS parents who have navigated the college admissions journey. The evening will include insights into college applications, athletics, and creative pursuits in music and the arts.
• Parent-to-Parent Rising 9th Grade Panel – Coming in Spring 2026, this panel helps ease the transition to high school by offering practical advice from parents who’ve been there.

For our senior class, the RHS PTSA proudly administers a variety of scholarship opportunities for PTSA members. These scholarships reflect the hard work and potential of our students, and we hope they continue to inspire excellence throughout RHS and beyond.

Whether you are a parent, guardian, student, or teacher, we invite you to become a member of the PTSA. Your membership and contributions directly fund the programs and resources that make a difference in our students’ lives. In addition to joining, please consider supporting our Feed the Tiger virtual fundraiser—every contribution, big or small, helps us make a lasting impact.

Stay connected with us! Be sure to check our newsletters and website for the latest updates, and don’t hesitate to reach out with questions or ideas. Your voice matters, and we value your partnership in creating a vibrant and supportive school community.

Thank you for your ongoing support. We’re looking forward to a wonderful school year filled with opportunities, growth, and shared successes.

Best Wishes,

Sara Armstrong & Jo-Anne Reynolds

Co-Presidents, RHS PTSA
