I have two children attend RHS and was so disappointed in the staff and how they handle issues, whether bahavior or grades. I felt there was only 1 teacher who truly cared about my student and was a mentor. There was never any communication from the teachers or working together with parents if issues came up. The office staff is not friendly. The students are not treated equally and different rules apply to different students. I truly felt that the majority of teachers are there for a paycheck and do not take the time with students to connect with them. The Dean of Students needs to be replaced immediately. We recently moved and I am amazed at how far behind academically RHS is. When my student started another school, she was so lost in a few of her classes as her new school is truly a high school about academics coming first before all extracurricular activities.Taking our student out of RHS was the best decision we have made for her future. The only thing we regret is that we didn't do it sooner!

Very few caring teachers who actually teach. Poor leadership from the staff. I wish I hadn't waited until 11th grade to pull her out.
