The month of February is a time for a celebration of achievements by African Americans and for recognizing their central role in U.S. history. So for the last week of the month, RHS recognized & celebrated the story of Black individuals who have broken barriers and made history by announcing one each day in the morning announcements. We wanted to make this information available to our community members as well because we know although we are not the most diverse school in the state, each one of us must work together to educate ourselves and each other. Happy Black History Month!
Thank you to RHS Senior Amelia Rursch for putting this information together.
