Class of 2022 Seniors & Parents -
I am happy to report that the supplemental order of 2021-22 RHS Yearbooks have finally arrived! For those who had not heard, there was a company production error with our original order and we were short about 50 yearbooks when they arrived in August. The decision was made to distribute yearbooks to our current students and hold the replacement order for our graduated seniors. That additional order has now arrived and we are ready to distribute the rest of the yearbooks.
Emails have been sent to students & parents who ordered a 2022 yearbook. They are available for pick-up in the RHS Office during school hours. Graduates, parents, or siblings are welcome to stop by to pick up the yearbook. We will have additional evening hours available during the volleyball game on Wednesday, October 19th and during Parent/Teacher Conferences from 3:00 to 8:00 pm on October 26th & 27th.
We apologize for the delay in getting these yearbooks ready for distribution. As you recall, we were in a tough situation last spring with a substitute adviser. I want to give a big shout-out to Bailah Bognar for all of her hard work keeping things going last spring (and early summer) to ensure the yearbook was completed and turned out great! Ms. Patricia Graves is our new yearbook adviser. She has been working through all of these details to ensure all of the Class of 2022 who ordered yearbooks get their book now that the full order has arrived.
Let me know if you have any questions.
