On Friday, October 6th, RHS will be hosting St. Benedict. This is also Senior Night.
RHS Admin would like to remind you of our rules and procedures for our football games, which are in place to ensure the safety and enjoyment of everyone attending. It is important that we all adhere to these guidelines.
1. ALL students must be accompanied by a parent if not seated in the bleacher area. This is to ensure their safety and to maintain a respectful environment.
2. School age children are strictly prohibited from congregating on campus, including reserved/paid parking areas, the front of the school, or concessions. Any student found in violation of these rules may be required to leave the premises for failure to comply.
3. Please note that if a student is asked to leave for willfully and persistently violating school rules, that student may not be eligible to attend any other extracurricular events for the remainder of the school year.
We kindly ask for your cooperation in following these rules. By doing so, we can ensure a positive and safe experience for everyone involved.
Thank you for your attention and continued support.
Go Tigers!!!
