We are now at the end of the strangest school year I have ever had! I am sad that we are not doing our “usual", but I know that you will use this experience as a lesson to be strong and adaptable as you move into your young adult lives!
On May 21st and 22nd, you will turn in your iPad and receive your diploma, awards, etc. You will NOT receive your diploma if you do NOT have the appropriate credits completed on these dates. You must contact your counselor if you have any doubts or if you have a problem. If you have not answered your counselors’ or teachers’ messages, now is the time! RHS MUST and WILL follow the mandates of WVDE and KCS regarding graduation.
You will drive through the loop at the front of the building during your designated time to return the iPad and receive your awards. You will stay in your car. Your iPad will be turned in first. Have your iPad charged and follow the following directions. This may take quite a bit of time if you do not follow these instructions.
