Big news for our athletes this week, as Rhiannon Carnahan joined Travis Nagle in qualifying for STATES for Cross Country–WOO HOO! Congrats to Rhiannon, Travis and Coach Lauren Carnahan who travel on to the STATE competition this Saturday. We’ll have a send off from the school this Thursday before they board the bus to STATES–do it up Cross Country!
As I’m sure you’ve heard by now, our boys football team beat Maple Grove at Ralph Wilson stadium to become the Section VI champions—another WOOT! A huge congratulations to our team and our coaches–I think half the town was at that game. It was a night when I got to feel very proud to be the RCS superintendent. Our boys advance to play the Section V champion in Rochester this Friday night at 5:00. Let’s do it again!
In order to allow everyone (this town sent over 500 people to Friday night’s game!) to safely travel to the game on Friday in time, we will dismiss all students, faculty and staff at 1:00 pm. That gives everyone plenty of time to drive safely and also allows time for our spectator bus to arrive for the 5:00 start time.
Spectator bus tickets are available in the HS main office for $5.00. No pre-sale tickets are available for this game, we have to buy them when we arrive. The spectator bus will leave at 1:00 pm and will be chaperoned.
Something else to think about. . . we have parent teacher conferences scheduled for Thursday and Friday. Elementary teachers who want to travel to the game may ask parents scheduled for a few late Friday conferences to reschedule. This is not to say your conference isn’t important! Your child’s academic progress comes first–always, without a doubt. Your child’s teacher will work with you to find a time that works for you if it is rescheduled. If YOU want to reschedule because you’re headed to the game, please let your child’s teacher know as soon as possible.
Hopefully we’ve covered all of the details. If I haven’t answered a question here, as always, give us a call!
And you can follow the conversation on Facebook at our RCS Facebook page for more up to the minute information. We’re up to 241 members!
Good morning, Kim: I’m writing to wish us both well under the “Friday Night Lights” contest in Rochester. Let both of teams fare well and continue the mantra of good sportsmanship. Nancy
