RJHS PTO Needs Volunteers
Our wonderful PTO helps teachers and staff during various events each semester. They help with things like awards ceremonies, chaperoning dances, and meals for teachers during conferences. They always need volunteers to help make these events successful. If you would like to help out and become a PTO volunteer you can email Kristy Freyaldenhoven, the RJHS PTO Volunteer Coordinator.
Semester Test Exemption Policy: Spring Semester
Students that maintain an 80% average over the 3rd and 4th 9 weeks, have the option to be exempt from their semester exam. Attendance does not matter as far as exemptions go.
Students are welcome to take their exam if they would like to improve their grade. If a student is exempt and attempts to take the semester exam and they do not do well, it will not count against them.
HAC Information and Student Grades
It is the goal of RJHS teachers and staff to keep student grades updated weekly for parents and guardians to stay aware of their child's/ children's progress throughout the semester. If you are having trouble accessing HAC (Home Access Center) you can email Jennifer Roberts for help with login credentials.
