RSU hosted an exciting day of Marble Madness! Students teamed up to design and build their very own marble rollercoasters using provided materials and a time limit. They presented their creations to judges, sharing their innovative ideas and vision. After all the hard work, the roller coasters were put to the test! We also heard from an inspiring keynote speaker. What an awesome day full of creativity and fun!

Our PE and Native American classes celebrated Native American Heritage Day with special guests from the Cherokee Nation, who shared both history and hands-on learning with our students through stickball, blow darts, and story telling.
Students learned that stickball—often called “the little brother of war”—is one of the oldest team sports in North America. For many Southeastern tribes, including the Cherokee, the game was traditionally played to build strength, discipline, and teamwork, and it often carried spiritual and community significance. Today, stickball continues to be played as a way to honor tradition, promote wellness, and keep cultural practices alive.
Our guests also introduced students to blow darts, explaining how this tool was historically used for hunting small game and for skill practice. Students learned about the craftsmanship behind the blowgun, how air pressure propels the dart, and the importance of accuracy and patience. The demonstration emphasized safety, respect for tools, and how traditional knowledge was passed down through generations.
This experience gave our students more than a lesson in sports—it offered insight into the history, culture, and living traditions of Native peoples. We are grateful to our Cherokee Nation guests for sharing their time, knowledge, and heritage with our school community. Days like this help students better understand and appreciate the rich cultures that continue to shape our nation.

Kindness Week at WRJH was a powerful reminder of how even the smallest acts can make the biggest difference. Throughout the week, students and staff celebrated the importance of compassion, empathy, and respect in our school community.
One of the highlights of the week was recognizing several outstanding students with the Kindness Award. These students went above and beyond in showing genuine care for others. Whether it was standing up for a peer, offering a helping hand without being asked, or consistently treating everyone with respect, each recipient demonstrated what it truly means to lead with kindness.
Let’s keep the momentum going and continue to choose kindness every day!

In Mrs. Bacon's class, we explored some of the special celebrations happening around the world. From Chinese New Year and Ramadan to Carnival, Fat Tuesday, and Ash Wednesday, we learned how different cultures and religions celebrate in meaningful and unique ways. It’s always so important to grow in understanding and respect for one another.
Since it was Fat Tuesday, we joined in the fun by making crepes filled with fruit, sweet spreads, cinnamon, and whipped cream. It was delicious! For some students, it was their very first crepe — and they were a big hit!

Students in Mrs. Newbury's High School Physical Science class got to see firsthand how a transverse wave really works – it’s like the matter just can’t help but move sideways, totally perpendicular to all that awesome energy! 🌊It’s science in action, and the “Aha!” moments were flying left and right!

Students in Mr. Wadsworth's classes recently took part in an interactive scavenger hunt all about Southeast Asia! To review what they've been learning, students were given a list of questions covering topics such as countries, capitals, landmarks, and cultures of the region. The answers were hidden throughout the school’s commons area, and teams raced to find and match them to the correct questions. The activity helped reinforce key concepts while getting students up, moving, and collaborating. It was a fun and energetic way to bring geography to life and see just how much they’ve learned about Southeast Asia!
