On Tuesday, Kim Drake and Mr. Lovell took 8th graders - Silas Lovell, Ryan Drake, Ben Rempe, and Brett Lemer to Topeka to serve as legislative pages at the Kansas State Capitol.
The students were sponsored by Representative Blake Carpenter and had a great experience learning firsthand about state government in action.

The annual RHMS fundraiser kicks off next Monday, Feb. 16!! We've decided to change it up a little bit this year to reduce overhead expenses and fees that take away from total earnings. Students will be bringing home "Pay-the-Day" calendars, as well as information regarding donations and prizes. Families with multiple students in the building will only need to complete one calendar per family. Top earners will receive lunch and a trip to Aviate! The fundraiser will go until March 12, and winners will be announced after Spring Break!
